Uganda, Feb. 21 -- At least 3,000 people have fled their homes following attacks by unidentified assailants in Apaa Township which borders Adjumani and Amuru districts.

The attackers, who were armed with spears, bows, arrows, and pangas among other weapons, reportedly raided the area between Friday night and Monday morning setting houses on fire and slaughtering livestock.

Many of the victims have since camped at Wee-yoo Trading Centre since it nears a police outpost.

In an interview with Monitor on Monday, Mr David Obiya, the Kal Acut Village chairperson, identified the affected villages as Goro B, Kal Acut, and Kamdini.
