Uganda threatens LRA with force
 The Ugandan army has resumed military operations against the Lord's Resistance Army despite ongoing peace talks to end the war. An army spokesman said on Wednesday that the renewed operations in northern Uganda should not hinder negotiations between the two sides in neighbouring southern Sudan. Major Felix Kulayigye said any Lord's Resistance Army (LRA) fighters in northern Uganda who had failed to assemble at two locations agreed under a truce that expired on September 19 would be "dealt with militarily"."This has nothing to do with the peace process which should continue," he added. The LRA - which began a civil war from northern Uganda 20 years ago - said it would defend its men against any army attack but that it remained committed to peace talks. Posted by: Fred 2006-10-05 |
