    The Ugandan army on Tuesday killed nine rebels of the Allied Democratic Forces (ADF) as they tried to escape an offensive in the Ruwenzori mountains and cross back into DRC, the 'New Vision' reported. The rebels were said to be part of a group fleeing the Semliki National Park into eastern DRC following an "intensive search" by the army, residents and local defence units.
