A man with machete wounds to his head from an attack by rebels of the Lord's Resistance Army (LRA) is treated in a hospital on February 21, 2009 in Ngilima, northeastern Congo. Rwanda will begin withdrawing its troops next week from eastern Democratic Republic of Congo after a joint operation with Congolese forces against Rwandan Hutu rebels, a joint military spokesman said. The two countries, in a surprise move, joined forces January 20 in the volatile Nord-Kivu region to drive out members of the Democratic Forces for the Liberation of Rwanda (FDLR) and repatriate civilians displaced by fighting. Some 6,500 FDLR Hutu rebels staked out positions in DR Congo after fleeing there after the 1994 Rwandan genocide in which some of them participated.
