: The Lords Resistance Army have made ambushes a daily event in northern Uganda, mainly along the road from Gulu to Kitgum. Six civilians were killed in four separate road ambushes between 4 and 5 September. There have been about 10 LRA attacks and ambushes, after the rebels recently declared a cease-fire. 

The latest attack occurred at 13:30 on 5 September, when a pick-up truck was shot up. At least two civilians were killed and numerous injured, including women and children. A following bus was then shot up, boarded and looted.

Even the army is still subject to attacks. The Gulu-based UPDF 4th Division's Intelligence Officer, Captain Abdul Rugumayo, was on wounded in one of these ambushes at 20:30 hours 4 September on the Gulu-Kampala highway. The convoy of two "Mamba" armored personnel carriers took sniper fire, and Rugumayo was the only Ugandan casualty.
