Ugandan rebels slaughter 192
At least 192 people were killed, with dozens of others wounded, the area's legislator said yesterday.
The attack on Barloonyo camp in Lira district is one of the worst in recent years by the rebel Lord's Resistance Army which has been fighting the Ugandan government for 17 years. As the rebels surrounded the camp, many people ran to their makeshift grass huts, rather than trying to escape, and were burned as the insurgents torched houses, said legislator Charles Anjiro.
