UN reports monitoring team finds 28 cases of sexual violence on Congo youths

A U.N. statement says a monitoring team looking into recent attacks in eastern Congo has documented sexual attacks against 28 youths, including one boy.

The statement Friday from the office of the U.N. special representative for children in armed conflict says the children subjected to sexual violence ranged in age from 12 to 17 years old. There is no mention of the four baby boys who local aid workers said were among 242 people raped in rebel attacks from July 30 to Aug. 4.
