The Ugandan military has launched air and artillery raids against the Allied Democratic Forces (ADF) armed group in eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), in an operation agreed with Congolese forces.
“This morning, we have launched joint air and artillery strikes against ADF camps with our Congolese allies,” a spokesperson for the Uganda People’s Defence Force said in a Twitter post on Tuesday.

I don’t know who’s the western proxy army and who’s for the People
For now i don’t know but I know time will tell
It’s China Vs USA. Uganda army backed by USA. The region has lots of minerals including cobalt which Chinese had become dominant in the game.
@Kayizzi Ritah I heard about that. So many news sources now days it’s hard to find a good one.
3rd Congo War is here
Continuation
This is a regional issue not bilateral, there cocktail of militia groups in that area not only ADF, all concerned countries should joins forces to eradicate the problem for once and all.
Where did all these terrorists come from again?
@albert einstien hmmm Rwanda, uganda, Congo,Tanzania, Burundi, Kenya ….
@albert einstien the Bible says Adam & Eve… since only women take the Y chromosome. How familiar are genus species. When you want like C Moss stated “not Rwanda, we’re trying to isolate them”… that’s if you believe that afrixa is the cradle of Humanity
@CONGOLESE YOUTH NETWORK C.Y.N simplistic to look at life.
You see fake media report negative negative UN & European has been stealing congo minerals 60yrs talk about why uganda Rwanda was there 20yrs ago
Do do they ever take a break?
This is why I said Africa shouldn’t unite for the time being
You mean they should unite? Not the opposite, check your spelling.
🤣 🤣 🤣 ‘when it rains it pours/they got money for wars but can’t feed the poor’ 2Pac
@THE AFRICAN tv…#Team No Fear You are tense‼️
Ugandans never luck food do Yr home be4 u comment nosense
let me tell this. uganda will never lack food and water. it even over produces,may be you help us and tell us the market to sell our exess
@THE AFRICAN tv…#Team No Fear 🤣🤣🤣if you want to hide anything from an idiot, hide it in a book or a saying and watch him completely losezit‼️‼️
U absolutely right, first it was Konyi , now ADF
Remember Uganda expelled refugees out to the Sahara. Christian soldiers killed muslim women and children. My favorite Genetics are found in the Congo. None of what I said relates to this current problem. But the first time I was called the n word I was assaulted over it; and I am easily annoyed
Adf it sounds like tplf
FRANCE FRANCE FRANCE FRANCE
We believe that Uganda will at least replicate their works in somalia, for the sake of EAC and in order to shed off this negative stereotypes of African wars are only driven in self interest.. look what the Rwandans are doing in Mozambique, just phenominal
i am still sceptical about Uganda ,the only reason Uganda invaded DRC 25y ago is because of political power gain and to take advantage of a drcs corrupt leader
ugandan and other amisom toops in somalia are mercenaries fighting for white governments interests
And you believe that narrative. It’s USA behind the Ugandan army to fight Chinese miners of cobalt & other minerals. They are creating artificial wars to steam minerals.
@Kayizzi Ritah unfortunately Africans always talk of vague foreign interests as if we still are the ‘backward’ natives the Europeans found all those years ago, we to have self interests both good and bad and truth be told, no one will do anything like wage a war unless there will be some benefit. Do u know how expensive wars are nowadays
Al Jazeera stay out of African issues!! Because we know you have your own agenda in reporting distorted or Fake news along with CNN, France 24, BBC, DW etc. Africa is for Africans! Get out!!
Why use expensive Toyota mini trucks? Three times the costs of India trucks.
no more rebels unite africa.
アフリカ大陸の軍隊は、優秀な欧米英ユダ諸国民が作りました。 目的は、後続的、アフリカ混乱内戦ですか? 違います。 全アフリカ諸国から、悪魔日本人殺戮淘汰処分と、悪魔追随者に対して、懲罰加える事です。 この事、ご理解、ご承知お願い、申し上げます。
WITH UGANDA! ITS A MUST WIN
We don’t want the Ugandan army in our country DRC they are The One forming those groups of rebel in DRC Museveni have killed allot no no to Museveni and his army
DRC a huge country with huge population with huge Economical potential power yet they are among the Poorest and weakest countries on Earth’ Uganda 🇺🇬 should just take over the whole Land of DRC
What about UN which has been in your so called country for seven decades looting you idiots open your eyes and see
Your are an idiot, UN troops in Yr country for decades and no result. Millions of Congolese Refugees in Uganda and you think Museveni is killing people yet you ran to a country Museveni leads
Thank you sister
Then stop running for refugee in Uganda…. Rwanda Burundi are all surrounding countries ….. Some people are the real problem to themselves.
Safe journey buddies
What Uganda took from Congo is far less from what you western are taking from Africa .
You are scared because UN Job will be done in the congo. Un are the one supporting local rebel. They are several video made by local people about the Un in the congo. They Un agent have be telling clearly people no war no jobs to the Un..video is going around of them giving rebel army .
Who asked you 😏😏thanks Mr president of Uganda for helping other people 🙏🙏🙏
We Ethiopians support Uganda in their war against terrorist groups. Peace and Unity in Africa! 🙌🏾🇪🇹💚💛❤️
Good job to Uganda❤
@L NDLOVU Nosense.
@L NDLOVU me?
M7 is the problem of Africa
This are armed and financed from outside Africa. Afrca should unite to get rid of the terrorist/ jihadists. They’re in Mozambique, nigeria and Mali,their main goal being to make Africa look chaotic and ungovernable. They recruit young religious fanatics who are jobless within our society and lead them senseless killing s. Afrca should wake up.
I knew that and every intelligent knew Uganda just wanted reason to Enter Congo to steal the Gold and other minerals, muzey made a game .
Malcom Webb is in Nairobi
🙏🇺🇬❤️for God and my country ❤️🇺🇬
uganda the peace keeping country in afrika big up our mzee
That’s not true no one is safe Uganda under M7’S government, which peace are taking about?
M7 is the @ADF, Konyi,
Uganda has done a great job 👍👍
Yu just don’t know what yu talking about am a Ugandan and we all know that the self proclaimed president Museven is the ADF he is the one creating instability around the region to for his and white interests. He has killed more than 10 million innocent people since he hijacked power in 1986. Ask any Ugandan around you about Museven or google about his atrocities
Museven is the ADF even ayoung baby knows that
Which job?
Derrick, these people are political haters because they support bobi wine 🍷 so dont mind 😂
AFRICA UNITE FOR OUR CHILDREN’S SAKES UPDF WILL PERFORM MAY THE LORD LEAD YOU IN YOUR PURSUITS
Stop your lies the ADF is museven
Maybe in some other sense, but if adf is of museveni the updf wouldn’t b interrogating people asking if they are Adf…kindly observe keenly
The so called MUNUSCO has failed to bring peace in DRC,let Uganda take over
For obvious reasons Uganda been dying to justify an entry into the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), playing up the ADF terror threat scapegoating and extrajudicially killing local Muslim suspects upon arrest. But this is all about the illegal exploitation and regional trafficking of natural resources from Eastern DRC, specifically LITHIUM & COBALT (THE NEW OIL), now in very high world demand. The Chinese are already in Eastern DRC under a 2008 $6 Billion infrastructure-for-minerals deal, and another big power indirectly wants to get into DRC using some disguised proxy-led incursion.
So Uganda has no best interest for DRC Europe does. Africans are now awake and in future whites will not have control over Africa
It’s true my sister
Uganda led by a blood thirsty thug killing africans in the great lakes region while he plunders Congolese minerals under guise of fighting terror
These are all lies and Europe is all in it🤔
M7 himself is the ADF rabel leader!! how did he came 2know rabel bases in drc if he is not among
? why cant he first hunt rabels inside ug and then he go 2hunt those outsie ug? how will he tell that the rabels are in this base hence it is not his country? m7 is the adf rabel leader just he is there 4other reasons let him dont fool pipo
Are there any countries in Africa not in some conflict?
Uganda army and Kenya army they’re in Somali about 10 years they did nothing at all just they make big camp by themselves and eat a lot of food
You may be right they did nothing but at least now Somalis are able to go play at the beaches and the Somali government is based in Mogadishu not in some other country. Somalia now has a police force not little boys running around with rifles and from what I have seen more and more flights are flying into Mogadishu. I hope that is what you mean by no work done
😂😂😂😂
Atleast now you can move around mogadishu talkng That the nothing you are talking about idiot
@kolyanga daniel is it developmental? Walking down the beaches 🤔🤔🤔
@Nakibuuka Susana even having sleep is not developmental but any human deserves to have sleep. Going to beach is a form of relaxation and a human being deserves to relax and also appreciate and have a feel of the goodness around us. If whites can fly from their countries to enjoy the white sands of Mombasa then why shouldn’t a Somali enjoy the beaches of Mogadishu
May Uganda despatch all the Jihadists to meet their 72 virgins in paradise ❤️❤️❤️
Commando Major alex
Intensifies
History is repeating itself.
ADF once exited but now no more, the guy in white shirt 1:05 was the leader of the group and he was arrested long time ago and those clips are 10 to 11 years old . Stop fooling people that there’s ADF that is MUSEVENI and his army.
Whoever dissolves his slave from childhood causes him to finally become wayward.
These idiots just making mo number of refugees and orphans in our country, who doesn’t know that museven is the one that supports rebellion and later he asks USA 🇺🇸 Money and guns to fight em
DONT ALLOW CONGO TO BE USED BY NEIGHBORING COUNTRIES TO ACQUIRE WEALTH. THE ONLY ADF THERE WAS FORMED BY THE FIGHTING FORCES THE MUSEVENI FORCE TO BRING A REASON TO GO TO CONGO.
So stupid Aljazeera. U r very stupid organization. U seem to be more interested in having conflict continuing so I have news to report. I hope you get thrown out of Ethiopia
Why does Aljezeera cover M7 knowing that he is a liar, a war monger and a colous dictator. Why did you not cover M7’s Kasese massacre of civilians and the raising down of the royal palace of Rwenzururu. How about the Nov 18-19 2020 when civilians were gunned down in Kampala for rioting over Bobi Wine’s arrest?
🇺🇬 ☻ – GO AFRICA GO. Through Out those ISIS 🕌TERRORISTS but Although Please UGANDA/RWANDA STOP EXPLOITING DRC CONGO MINERALS and if you do “PAY DRC CONGO FOR THE MINERALS MINED AND TAKEN.❌.❎👈
Ok Uganda has no good interest in D R C what about you white people?
🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬🇨🇩🇨🇩🇨🇩
DUMMIES ! WHAT ABOUT YOUR AIRPORT TAKEN OVER BY CHINA !
All this creating by weak sick corrupt colonized we know they behind all Africa problem
Uganda don’t creating weapons who support the rebels with weapons ?
Dear Migrants, please come to Germany. We need you and we have space for ALL immigrants 🇩🇪❤🇦🇫🇵🇰🇱🇧🇮🇶🇵🇸🇮🇳🇧🇩🇹🇷🇧🇾❤🌈☝💞🌈 Please send all refugees to Germany, thank you so much! 🌈🇩🇪💞🌍🌈
Africa need to reform new system that can start truck for any country how the rebels get weapons into the continent who is behind them file criminal complaint against whoever supporting them to the international court!!
Any war in Africa the west is behind supplying arms to protect their interests. Tell me a country in Africa that manufacture guns.
Mus3veni have fooled aljezira
War monger at work at DR Congo 🇨🇩
Thousands were injured !! inaccurate reporting
Al Jazeera stupidity, what has UN done with all it’s occupation for years
UN has been in DRC since 1997 and till now you can’t see what they are doing their! if you accusing Uganda or daughting on their operations against ADF why don’t you ask UN what is doing in DRC??? western media and western governments you’re always having bad thoughts and bad actions in Africa because you think you’re only ones who must benefit from wars on our continent, most of us we know you
Mineral war.
Lanetullahi aleyh Uganda army
Just stealing minerals not protecting people not fighting ADF and no one bombed Kampala it’s museven who bombed Kampala not ADF stop being paid to be fools # aljazera
Peace in the region for who? Yet ugandans are crying and being killed by the same government nosense
Uganda back off to your international borders
ADF was created by dictator Museveni himself and he funds it. its former leader Jamil Mukulu revealed it in 2018. Those bombs were planted by govt to pull international sympathy especially after Museveni stole elections in a brutal manner in January from Bobi wine. Ugandan parliament did not permit the army to invade congo. They are their for minerals, timber and western money for fighting terrosrism…to finance the dictator’s govt
There is no evidence of ADF linking to ISIS, not one. Those are lies peddled by dictator museveni
“For the sake of His sorrowful Passion have mercy on us and on the whole world.”
Mr Tshisekedi must learn from the past. Where is Congolese army to fight against Afd rebels?
What did he promise with Mr Museveni? Oh shame
Karen knows what is going on in Africa Lol
Stop referring to this Congo invasion as Uganda 🇺🇬 war. When it wasn’t approved by the Ugandan parliament. This is a M7 war appetite
If it hasn’t been approved why are they’re there? How can the Army plan an attack in a different country without parliament approval?
That’s how Dictator M7 operates.
They have gone to rob gold and other minerals . Uganda hasn’t yet cleared the previous money after they were told to compensate congo
I just love to see our African countries helping each other to fight off terrorists other African countries should learn from Rwanda 🇷🇼, Tchad 🇹🇩 & Uganda 🇺🇬 love from Botswana 🇧🇼
You shouldn’t buy that easily what you see on media. Having lived in congo for decades and knowing the story between these two countries, I am almost certain that the truth is not told in this video
THIS CHANNEL IS CORRUPT… THERE MAY BE EVIDENCE THAT UGANDA’S DICTATOR BRIBED AL JAZEERA TO START REPORTING ABOUT HIS FAKE ACHIEVEMENTS JUST TO GET WORLD SUPPORT. IF YOU WISH TO KNOW THE TRUTH ABOUT THIS ONGOING “CONFLICT” THEN WATCH FRED LUMBUYE’S CHANNEL.
THE UGANDAN ARMY IS FAKING THIS… THERE ARE NO REBELS IN THAT REGION BUT INSTEAD THERE ARE LOCAL TRIBES FIGHTING TO PROTECT THEIR LIVESTOCK THAT IS BEING STOLEN BY THE UGANDAN ARMY UNDER THE COMMAND OF DICTATOR YOWERI MUSEVENI.
AL JAZEERA IS DOING DOUBLE STANDARDS.
Proud of Uganda and Congo, proof that solutions to African problems by Africans works
Good job to Uganda tuzamenya ibyiyo RDF yazengereje congo imyaka yose.
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Non Ugandans here are praising m7 n ADF.
GUYS you dnt know what’s on ground
Idiot miviri es-tu congolais toi?
Poor Dr.congo , no leadership the country runs by thieves ,This result anyone can enter kill ans steal .
Don’t talk bad about uganda! We’re aiming at creating peace for good 🙏
Cyclic Retribution!
It is amazing to see accomplice countries that triggered or helped to trigger religious, Tribal or clan genocidal wars in Somalia, South Sudan end up in same the savage tribal genocidal imbroglio of their make. Who is next Qatar!
Fir news campaign..There is no on ADF..take news to get funding..
That white lady face is complicent to investigation… with that story..she is fake..one of the paid fake story reporters..Ugandans know the true story..that why they not even interrogated…Another economic exploitation mission after Warren buffet son visited Uganda a month ago…he paid big bugs for this mission….open your eyes. Yall
Uganda and Rwanda sponsored and armed the rebels in that region. The aim is to divide that part of Congo which is mineral high. M23 rebels are children of these two countries and as far as them fighting terrorists, it’s all a joke as they are the ones who created this. Secondly Uganda is even constructing roads from the mineral infested areas to Uganda in order to easily transport the countries mineral. It’s not about terrorists people. I am all for peace and one Africa but let’s not be blind. Also UN has play a major role in aiding this. When I was young I saw a unicef lorry 🚛 flip and it as meant to be bringing food for Rwandan refugees yet it had guns underneath. We tried to get the food as kids and the UN soldiers would chase us away.
Keep believing in propaganda instead of working for peace.
@arthur atukunda i have family in the region. You ignore evidence and make nonsense statements like this. How is peace when Congo has lost 6M plus yo this. Don’t call that propaganda those 6M lives are not propaganda lives they are innocent humans massacred. Who did then? Seen as you know more than everyone even Congolese themselves
@CONGOLESE YOUTH NETWORK C.Y.N You keep blaming foreigners instead of blaming your selves for problems in your country. If you can’t have security strong enough to secure your country to the extent that terrorists find it extremely easy to stay in your country and keep launching attacks on us from your territory then you can’t blame us for coming to deal with the problem ourselves.
Big up our UPDF
analysist… Analysist…. How long have the whites been in Congo.. correct me if i am wrong one UN official died in congo air crash while stealing gold. The whites are happy when congo is at war because they benefit in exploitation.
I hear @Aljazeera was paid huge sums of tax pairs money to publish this rubbish 😡😡😡😡
At least we Ugandans know the truth
Uganda evaded Congo way back in 1998 and rooted it for years. There came the second evasion “the hunt for Konyi”. Together with the US forces , Konyi has never been found. M7 is the Konyi , ADF terroring the whole great lakes region.
The white reporter said that there is no interests for uganda to stabilise DR Cong ok for France en Belgium who have been there for years what have they done ? Only stealing Gold and other minerals can whites please leave Africans why didnt u intervene in Rwanda during genocide coz Rwanda had no fuel and minerals why didnt stabilise Somalia let Africans fight their wars
Point of correction,the leader of ADF Jamilu Mukulu was arrested and he’s in Ugandan prison custody 💪😎🇺🇬
Congolese people are not stupid and we didn’t forget what Uganda’s army and Rwanda’s army did in Kisangani. We don’t want any help from you guys, Congolese people will continue to fight till we get our freedom. INGETA✊
Kenya elite forces can eliminate ADF within seconds.
