Ugandan troops killed about 200 ADF fighters in the Democratic Republic of Congo, as the military operations to flush out the Islamic State group-affiliated militants continue, Uganda’s president said.
“We have been carrying out air attacks on the terrorists in Congo,” President Yoweri Museveni said, adding that around “200 of them were killed” in strikes carried out on 16 September.
More strikes against the fighters have been carried out since then, Museveni added, without giving further details.
