Police officers from Uganda serving with the United Nations-African Union Mission in Darfur (UNAMID) stand in respect next to the coffin of one of their colleagues during the funeral ceremony for seven slain peacekeepers in El Fasher July 12, 2008. The peacekeepers were killed in an ambush by Darfur militiamen while on a routine patrol in North Darfur on Tuesday, in the worst direct attack on UNAMID forces since they began work on December 31. Five of the seven killed were from Rwanda while the other two are from Ghana and Uganda. REUTERS/Albany Associates/Stuart Price/Handout (SUDAN). FOR EDITORIAL USE ONLY.
