SV: SV: {UAH} Chief of DR Congo troops fighting Uganda rebels killed

Chaka, this should be a sad story but, they make

it laughable reporting.If you ask for more detail, you might hear:".....myself I managed to survive by acting dead and covering myself with dead bodies....."

This is funny and technically not true

"Just when we arrived at Matembo, a rocket came in from the right-hand side of the road and struck our jeep, which was mounted with a heavy weapon," Corporal Paul Safari, a bodyguard to the colonel, told AFP near the scene."

An RP7 class wahead (let us say most of RPG in Africa are the PG-7 class) this warhead will destroy a truck, just the explosion. Note PG-7 penetrates approximately 600mm of steel.  For the heavy weapon mounted on the truck, I strongly beleive it is a 50-calibre machine gun. So if you have your truck destroyed, how will you continue to shoot?

The commander of Congolese government troops fighting Ugandan Islamist rebels in the restive east of country was killed in an ambush Thursday, the government said.

"Colonel Mamadou Ndala has been killed... Apparently it was the ADF-Nalu (Ugandan rebel force) that killed him and two of his bodyguards," government spokesman Lambert Mende said.

"This is really an immense loss for the armed forces and the republic," Mende told AFP.

Ndala was headed travelling between towns in strife-torn North Kivu province, "for the deployment of a commando battalion when his jeep fell into an ambush," Mende said.

The attack was apparently the work of the rebel Alliance of Democratic Forces and National Army for the Liberation of Uganda (ADF-Nalu), which is one of the oldest armed movements active in eastern DR Congo, military and UN sources said.

"Just when we arrived at Matembo, a rocket came in from the right-hand side of the road and struck our jeep, which was mounted with a heavy weapon," Corporal Paul Safari, a bodyguard to the colonel, told AFP near the scene.

"I began shooting until I ran out of ammunition, but the aggressors were still advancing," he added.

A senior officer in the UN mission in the DR Congo (MONUSCO), which is providing the army with military and logistical support, confirmed the "probably by the ADF-Nalu against the FARDC (Congolese army)."

"The situation is complicated," the officer said, without elaborating.
