The Makombo massacre took place from 14 to 17 December 2009 in the Haut-Uele District of Democratic Republic of the Congo in the village and region of Makombo.[1] Human Rights Watch (HRW) believes the attacks, which killed 321 people, were perpetrated by the Lord's Resistance Army (LRA), which denied responsibility.
The sixty-mile (95 km) round-trip series of attacks began on 13 December 2009, in Mabanga Ya Talo, and continued until 18 December, traveling southeast down to the village of Tapili and back northwest again to the point of origin near the LRA camps on the north bank of the Uele River near Mavanzonguda.[1]
