Sudan: July 20, 2004

Archives

Members of the Ugandan LRA (Lords Resistance Army) have staged several raids in southern Sudan. Driven out of Uganda by the Ugandan army, and now being chased by Sudanese troops, the LRA need food, and have been getting it by raiding Sudanese villages. Several dozen villagers have been killed in the process. The LRA was, and apparently still is, supported by the Sudanese government, as long as it does its raiding in areas controlled by south Sudan rebels (mostly black, and mostly Christian, African tribes).
