Ugandan Troops Begin Leaving DR Congo

Uganda has begun withdrawing its soldiers from the Democratic Republic of Congo, after a three month hunt for members of the rebel Lord's Resistance Army. The first troops arrived at Uganda's Entebbe airport late Sunday. Uganda's deputy chief of defense forces, Lieutenant-General Ivan Koreta, said the rest of the 3,000 troops should be out within eight days.
