Rebels attacked a refugee camp in northern Uganda, torching homes and gunning people down as they fled, a priest and a legislator said Sunday. At least 192 people were killed, some perishing in the flames of their own homes. The rebels with the Lord’s Resistance Army raided the Barloonyo camp late Saturday, burning huts and firing on people with assault rifles and mortars, said the Rev. Sebhat Ayele, who visited the camp Sunday. “I saw one hut with seven family members still burning and three (people) in the next hut were also still burning,” Ayele, said by telephone from the nearby town of Lira, 155 miles north of Kampala. Local lawmaker Charles Anjiro said he and the district police commander counted 192 bodies Sunday morning. Full Story
