| UN urges rebels to free 90 kids in Congo |
| 2008-10-02 |
| The United Nations on Wednesday urged rebels from the Lord's Resistance Army to free 90 school children abducted two weeks ago in eastern Congo. U.N. officials called "for the immediate and unconditional release of all of the abducted children, taken during simultaneous attacks" on three villages in Orientale province Sept. 17. They blamed the Lord's Resistance Army, which has waged one of Africa's longest and most brutal rebellions, for abducting the children. |
