Urge Uganda to End Human Rights Abuses in the Congo
According to AI: "The current war in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) has been one of the world's deadliest. It is estimated that some two and a half to three million people have died, due to the violence and conditions created by the fighting. Amnesty International has documented large-scale human rights abuses, including acts of torture and sexual violence, unlawful killings and illegal detentions, committed by the Rwandan, Ugandan, and Zimbabwean governments and their rebel counterparts based in the DRC. Many of these abuses are directly linked to the exploitation of the DRC's natural resources. Please urge the President of Uganda to take immediate steps to end these human rights abuses and to investigate, prosecute, and convict perpetrators."
