Current state of affairs in northern Uganda.

Published by ducan on January 22, 2009

Almost exactly one month after the launch of a military offensive targeting the LRA in eastern DR Congo, the situation is rapidly deteriorating, with massive civilian casualties and a dire humanitarian situation unfolding throughout the region. What we’re now seeing is the nightmare scenario. But in a joint statement we’re releasing today with our partners at the Enough Project, we argue that there is still time for the international community to intervene and salvage this opportunity to end the violence. With countless children yet again caught in the crossfire of this war, and given the United States’ role in sparking this catastrophe, there is a serious imperative to act quickly and responsibly.

The Good: The top US Senator for Africa expressed his deep concern about children caught in the crossfire of the current crisis in northeastern DR Congo.

The Bad: LRA attacks and abductions continued this week, spreading out over a larger territory.

The Ugly: Ugandan troops spearheading the regional offensive continue to lack a clear plan to apprehend LRA leaders and end the violence.
