2008–09 Garamba offensive
The 2008–2009 Garamba offensive (codenamed Operation Lightning Thunder〔) started on 14 December 2008, when joint Ugandan, DR Congolese and Southern Sudanese forces launched a botched〔Litell, Jonathan (15 April 2014) (Sign Warfare ) Asymptote, (translated form a French article in Le Monde), Retrieved 16 April 2014〕〔 military attack against the Lord's Resistance Army (LRA) in the Garamba region of DR Congo.
== Background ==
In June 2008, after the LRA had attacked and killed 23 people in Southern Sudan, including 14 soldiers, a Ugandan military spokesman said Uganda, DR Congo and Sudan would launch a joint offensive against the LRA if its leader, Joseph Kony, failed to commit to the Juba peace talks. Concurrently, the Southern Sudanese Information Minister, Gabriel Changson, declared that "The LRA have started war", and that "Southern Sudan will not be the place where they can wage this war". The same month, diplomats reported that the LRA had acquired new weapons and was forcibly recruiting new soldiers, adding 1,000 recruits to the 600 soldiers it already had.
An onslaught against the LRA by Ugandan forces in northern Uganda and across the border in Southern Sudan, led the rebels to relocate to the densely forested Garamba National Park in DR Congo – and when they attacked and killed civilians there, the Congolese government vowed to destroy the LRA.
