A major shift in military strategy has been revealed as the country’s chief of defence announces a withdrawal from a previously confirmed joint operation. The announcement follows Uganda’s surprise declaration two months earlier that it would take part in the initiative, raising questions about the rationale behind the abrupt reversal. With no immediate explanation provided, speculation is already swirling over the potential implications for regional security and cooperation. Details on the next steps remain unclear, leaving observers eager for further clarification.


The decision, announced by the chief of defence, comes just two months after Uganda said it would participate.
