Uganda Withdraws Somalia Troops
Uganda has begun withdrawing peacekeeping troops that helped repel al-Shabab militants in Somalia, BBC reports. The move marks the end of a two-decade mission in the Horn of Africa region.
The decision comes as part of Uganda's strategic realignment, with officials citing reduced security threats and shifting regional priorities, per Reuters. The withdrawal will affect over 1,000 troops currently stationed in Somalia.
This troop reduction is a significant development for the anti-extremist mission in Somalia, as Uganda had been one of the key contributors to the African Union Mission in Somalia (AMISOM), Arab News notes. The shift may impact regional stability and ongoing counter-terrorism efforts.
