UGANDA’S military offensive against the Lord’s Resistance Army (LRA) rebels and their leader, Joseph Kony, has been extended to the Central Africa Republic (CAR). The army spokesman, Felix Kulayigye, the offensive is going on after authorization from CAR government to pursue the LRA rebels in its territory. Uganda, South Sudan and DR Congo on December 15, 2008 jointly attacked the LRA bases in Garamba forest in eastern DRC. This was after Kony, wanted by the International Criminal Court for crimes against humanity, refused to sign the final peace agreement negotiated with Uganda in Juba, South Sudan. The attack sent his fighters in disarray and they have resorted abducting, maiming and killing thousands of people in the region.
