President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni of Uganda has announced that the country's army has brutally killed 560 fighters of the ADF terrorist group. The announcement comes just a few weeks after Major General Dick Olum, the Commander of Operation Brave, launched by the armies of the two neighboring countries on November 31, 2021, announced in the middle of last August that hundreds of rebels of the group called Allied Democratic Forces (ADF) ) have been killed since the forces of Uganda and the Democratic Republic of Congo launched Operation Shujaa against the gang in eastern Congo. The anti-Kampala group of the Allied Democratic Forces (ADF) is in the forests in the east of the Democratic Republic of Congo where it is carrying out attacks in Congo and Uganda.
President Yoweri Museveni of Uganda After obtaining Congo's permission, Ugandan soldiers launched an operation there against the ADF wanting to destroy their camps and kill or capture the group's fighters. However, in general, attacks in those areas have decreased significantly, especially in areas where the joint forces of the DRC and Uganda have camped. ADF rebels have been operating in the forests of eastern Congo DR for more than two decades now and have been carrying out attacks within the country and sometimes within Ugandan territory. The terrorist group DAESH has announced the ADF group as its branch in the Central African region.
