Ugandans Mourn 45 Children Killed By ADF Rebels at Lhubiriha Secondary School

On 17th June 2023, Ugandans were gutted by the sad news of the Allied Democratic Front ADF killing over 45 children at Lhubiriha Secondary School in Mpondwe.

According to reports on our news desk, the ADF attacked the Lhubiriha Secondary School on Friday night killing children who were in their dormitories.

By press time, 45 fatalities had been reported, and others who sustained serious injuries were rushed to the nearby hospital for medication.
