Military campaign against Congo rebels 'largely positive' 


Kinshasa, 09 Sept-(ANA)-A joint operation by the United Nations and the Congolese army to rid the country's east of rebel militias has had a "largely positive" outcome, the UN special representative to Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Alan Doss, said on 26 August.

 

The Kimia II operation begun in late March aims to rid the area of armed groups whose continued presence has contributed to the region's instability since the ostensible end of civil war in 2003. (ANA)
