According to the African Union, four nations have agreed to join together to form a "joint military force" to combat the Lord's Resistance Army. The LRA is staging attacks up to 600 miles away from Uganda, with the latest attack coming last Sunday in the Central African Republic. The brigade, which would commonly include 1,000 men, is being formed with help from Uganda, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Sudan, and the Central African Republic. The plan includes the formation of a joint operations center to oversee shared information and intelligence and the creation an eventual joint border patrol system. Along with these four countries, the AU is planning on soliciting help from Nigeria and South Africa.
