Uganda People’s Defence Forces Spokesperson Brigadier General Flavia Byekwaso says the Ugandan army has launched joint air and artillery strikes against the rebel group the Allied Democratic Forces in the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo.
She says that the operations were carried out with Congolese allies, against ADF camps, but did not give further details on the areas they have been conducted.
Ugandan authorities blame the ADF, which is affiliated with the so-called Islamic State, for a series of bomb attacks in the country since October.
IS claimed responsibility for twin bombings just outside the capital Kampala’s central police station and near parliament.
