The International Criminal Court has opened a war crimes case against Ugandan rebel leader Joseph Kony. The move revives efforts to hold him accountable for atrocities committed by the Lord's Resistance Army.
Kony, who has been in hiding for years, faces charges related to crimes against humanity, including murder and enslavement. The ICC's action follows new evidence and international pressure. Ugandan authorities welcome the development but note challenges in capturing Kony.
