Uganda has begun withdrawing its troops from Somalia after nearly two decades of military presence, as tensions rise in the region, per hiiraan.com.

The decision follows growing rifts within the Ugandan government over the mission's effectiveness and escalating costs, theeastafrican.co.ke reports.

Meanwhile, Uganda's inflation surged to a three-year high due to currency instability, with officials raising interest rates to curb the slide, Reuters notes.
