Uganda: 'No red line' for Uganda rebels
12.10.2005
Uganda's army commander says his troops have been given unlimited access to fight Ugandan rebels based in Sudan. The move follows last week's indictment of five Lord's Resistance Army rebels by the International Criminal Court. Until now the army could not go beyond a so-called "red line", about 100km (62 miles) into Sudanese territory. The Khartoum government backed the LRA until the end of Sudan's civil war, but the rebels remain active - their latest attack was reportedly on Friday.
