The World : Killing of Refugees Told

Share via

Ugandan soldiers loyal to Gen. Tito Okello attacked 17 Ugandan refugee camps in southern Sudan, killing an undetermined number of people, raping women and burning huts, Radio Uganda reported. The state-owned radio said the attacks occurred early this week. Okello was ousted in January by the National Resistance Army, which installed Yoweri Museveni as president. Members of the Madi tribe, which has been accused of collaborating with Okello’s foes, occupy many of the Sudanese camps.
