The means of transport used by traffickers vary widely. Research has revealed the use of taxi motorbikes (known as 'boda-bodas' in Uganda), personal vehicles, transport trucks, and small boats. Weapons and ammunition have been transported between Burundi and the DRC in both vehicles and boats, for instance, along the Ruzizi River or across Lake Tanganyika. (p. 42)
In the Central African Republic weapons formerly belonging to government forces of the DRC and Chad have been documented. (p. 51)
