Ugandan aggression against DRC a 'grave violation' of international law: ICJ

Most international criticism for Ugandan strongman Yoweri Museveni. Today, the International Court of Justice held responsible for massacres committed in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The massacres occurred during Uganda's aggression against its large neighboring in the late 90s, which the court referred to as an 'unlawful military intervention.'

The ICJ also denounced the Ugandan military for deploying child soldiers and inciting ethnic conflict as it rampaged through Congo's Ituri province in fighting between August 1998 and July 1999, notes News24.com.

The DRC will reportedly seek some $10 billion in compensation.

A related complaint by the DRC against Rwanda has not yet been ruled upon.
