BBC NEWS | Africa | 'Both sides' violate Uganda truce: "Both the Ugandan army and the rebel Lord's Resistance Army have violated the terms of their truce, a report on the Ugandan peace process says.

In August, the two sides agreed a deal aimed at ending two decades of conflict in Uganda at peace talks in Sudan.

LRA rebels pledged to assemble at two points in southern Sudan by mid-September in return for an amnesty. But rebels had left one of the points, while the army had approached a rebel safe haven, a monitoring team found.

Both sides admitted the violations."
