Sudan has sent 300 military vehicles to South Darfur state following ethnic clashes which have killed dozens of people.
The deputy commander of the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces, Major General Abdel-Rahim Hamdan Dagalo, is leading the force.
He said his troops had recovered more than 10,000 head of livestock stolen during the clashes.
The fighting between the Arab al-Raziqat and African al-Falata was sparked by a dispute over livestock.
There has been conflict in the Darfur region in western Sudan for the past 17 years.
