Refugees cooking STORYLINE: Some 13-thousand refugees have fled into Uganda in the past ten days amid one of the worst spates of fighting in Congo since elections last year, officials have said. They're settling into relief camps, telling of rapes and murders and looking set to stay permanently after years of deadly Eastern Congo strife linked to the 1994 genocide in Rwanda. "We heard bullets and we ran away, we don't know why they were shooting so we decided to run," Nyirambabazi Angerike told AP Television in a refugee camp in Kisoro. The latest fighting in Congo is pitting government forces and allied militants against forces loyal to a renegade army commander, General Laurent Nkunda, who split from the Congo military arranged after the official 2003 end of the country's long civil war, which began in 1998 and displaced millions of Congolese. Nkunda says his fighters are protecting the Tutsi people, who were the main victims in the 1994 Rwandan genocide that saw Hutu extremists slaughtering more that 500-thousand Tutsis and moderate Hutus. As Rwandan Tutsi-led forces moved on the capital, Kigali, to end the killing then, many of the Hutu militants moved across the border into Congo, which has indigenous populations of both ethnic groups, and continued their killing. Nkunda says he'll drive out the Hutu militants, but his predominantly Tutsi forces now stand accused of the atrocities they claim to want to stop. "We met with Nkunda's soldiers, they were six of them, three of them caught us and carried us. They then removed our clothes by force then raped us," said Consolatris Nyaramahoru, a refugee. Elections last year overseen by some 17-thousand UN peacekeepers was meant to knit the country back together. But President Joseph Kabila's re-elected government has yet to stabilise the east. In recent weeks, the government has moved forcefully to neutralise Nkunda fighting has spread, the refugees in Uganda say. They told of atrocities committed by Nkunda's men. In addition to abductions, beatings and killings, most of the armed groups in eastern Congo use sexual violence as a weapon of war, researchers say. Human rights activists say that there has been more rape here than in any other conflict.
