Congo, christmas massacre

By on January 1, 2009

Bbc say that more than 400 people have been killed by ugandan ebels in Rdc Congo. The head of Caritas in DR Congo told the BBC some 20,000 people had fled to the mountains from the rebels, who have denied carrying out the attacks.
An eyewitness told the BBC that five people in Faradje had their lips cut off by Lord’s Resistance Army fighters. They were told that it was a warning not to speak ill of the rebels. The armies of Uganda, South Sudan and DR Congo carried out a joint offensive against the rebels in mid-December after LRA leader Joseph Kony again refused to sign a peace deal. The LRA leader, who has lived in a jungle hideout in north-eastern DR Congo for the last few years, is wanted by the International Criminal Court for war crimes and crimes against humanity.
