This table includes attacks documented by Human Rights Watch from interviews with victims and witnesses to attacks, children and adults who were abducted by the LRA and later escaped, and civil society representatives and local leaders. Research was conducted during a mission to southeastern CAR, including many of the villages that were attacked, in July and August 2010. Additional follow-up research was conducted by phone and email communication with actors working in the LRA-affected areas.
