The report (see pdf below), which covers the period from 8 June 2006 to 15 March 2007, specifies incidents of grave children’s rights violations and abuses, indicative of their nature and trends in Uganda. The report explicitly identifies parties to the conflict referred to in the 2006 report by the Secretary-General on children and armed conflict (S/2006/826 and Corr.1): the Uganda People’s Defence Forces and its allied local defence units, as well as the Lord’s Resistance Army (LRA). The updated report highlights recent incidents of cross-border recruitment and use of children from the Central African Republic, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and southern Sudan by the LRA, and makes recommendations.
