Ugandan LRA rebels sign new truce

Uganda's northern rebels and the government have signed a new truce in an effort to revive stalled talks.

Under the August agreement, Lord's Resistance Army rebels were supposed to gather at two points by mid-September. But both sides violated the deal.

The new truce addresses rebel demands by creating buffer zones around the assembly points.

Negotiations taking place in Juba, southern Sudan are trying to end a 20-year conflict in northern Uganda.
