UN-Backed Troops Kill 90 Rebels in Eastern Congo

PDF Print E-mail


According to the United Nations, some 90 Hutu rebels have been killed in Eastern Congo in the past two weeks, as part of a joint operation between the Congolese Army and UN forces. In addition to the killings, a UN forces spokesman said that some 68 people surrendered in the attack, and they recovered 47 weapons. Why 158 rebel fighters only had 47 weapons between them was not explained.

The offensive, dubbed Operation Peace Now by the Congolese govt, saw two bases destroyed in a pair of provinces along the border between Congo and Rwanda. The operation was a follow-up to Operation Kimia II last year.

Kimia II was roundly condemned internationally as a “humanitarian disaster,” displacing nearly a million people, and the UN-backed troops left 1,000 civilians dead. Both the rebels and the UN-backed Congo troops were implicated in the attacks on innocent civilians, leading to calls for a UN pullout.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OQ62P6ER5mc&feature=youtube_gdata

How to get international troops out of Afghanistan, and replace them with local forces? That was the crunch issue being discussed at a 70 nation conference on the future of the war-torn country. One plan involves tempting Taliban fighters to leave the insurgency behind, and take up civilian jobs. The plan also includes buying off up to 12,500 members of the Taliban with a promise that they will be paid to defend their own villages.

If you look patiently at the video, you will see a pair of eyes that is formed in the clouds overlooking a village in Indonesia. It will really shock and scare you!

However, apparently this video was taken a few years ago in Russia. Hence the source is unknown and the location too but it is a very real video, not a graphic picture.
