(ANS) – Lord’s Resistance Army (LRA) rebels have killed at least 20 people in the north of Uganda in two separate attacks. According to the BBC, a vehicle was ambushed on Thursday night (May 5), hours after refugees were hacked to death with the tools they were using to work in the fields, officials say. The attacks come at a time when aid agencies have expressed concern over increased insecurity close to Gulu, said the BBC story. Despite the attacks, efforts to set up peace talks with the rebel leadership are continuing.
