U.N. says Congo rebels pulling back "in hundreds"
Published in Saudi Press Agency on 19 - 11 - 2008


Congolese Tutsi rebels were
pulling back "in the hundreds" from frontline positions in North
Kivu province in a gesture to support a United Nations peace
initiative, a U.N. military spokesman said on Wednesday.
"Since yesterday evening they have been withdrawing. They
are pulling back south on three axes - from Kanyabayonga towards
Kibirizi, from Kanyabayonga towards Nyanzale and from Rwindi
south," Lt-Col Jean-Paul Dietrich told Reuters.
He said U.N. peacekeepers were monitoring the pullback.
