You can\u2019t just rush into someone\u2019s land. However, we have the right to hot pursuit and self-defence,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Oryem said yesterday the UPDF would ensure minimal casualties of children and women, who are within the ADF ranks, once it crosses the border.<\/p>\n<p>He said earlier this month that DRC\u2019s Foreign Affairs minister and senior military officials visited Kampala to discuss removing children from the ADF ranks to deradicalise them.<\/p>\n<p>He said the DRC leadership has obtained enough evidence about ADF\u2019s recruitment and radicalisation as well as the dangers of allowing it to continue operating in the east of the country.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cKinshasa government is fully aware of their presence hence they agree with us that we need to eliminate these people as soon as possible,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The minister also accused the ADF of having a hand in the attack by M23 rebel fighters on the Congolese army near the border with Uganda on November 8.<\/p>\n<p>In response to news reports about the pending deployment of the UPDF in eastern DRC, Ms Tina Salama, the deputy spokesperson for Congo\u2019s President Felix Tshisekedi, tweeted in French: \u201cThe best would be (would have been) to wait for the official declaration of the Congolese government which will intervene shortly to clarify the situation.\u201d [Translation ours \u2013 Editor].<\/p>\n<p>Brig Flavia Byekwaso, the spokesperson of the Ministry of Defence and UPDF, yesterday said they are yet to receive official communication about DRC authorising Ugandan troops to cross the border. \u201cWe are also hearing about this authorisation of Uganda troops to carry out operations in DRC in the press,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>A joint force of Ugandan and Rwandan troops invaded Zaire, as DRC was then officially known, in 1997 and enabled Congolese forces led by Laurent-D\u00e9sir\u00e9 Kabila to topple President Mobutu Sese Seko.<\/p>\n<p>The intervention was marred by controversy after the two allies turned guns on each other and hundreds of thousands of Congolese died in the fighting.<\/p>\n<p>The DRC government later sued Uganda for plunder at the International Court of Justice, which awarded Kinshasa damages of $10 billion. The matter is yet to be resolved.<\/p>\n<p>Following a formal withdrawal of its troops in 2003, two years after Kabila\u2019s assassination and succession by his son, Joseph Kabila, Uganda again deployed in DRC with Kinshasa\u2019s authorisation under the African Union Regional Task Force to counter the Lord\u2019s Resistance Army (LRA) rebels.<\/p>\n<p>In December 2008, the UPDF launched Operation Lightning Thunder, which dislodged Joseph Kony\u2019s LRA rebels from Garamba National Park in northeast DRC, scattering them to the Central African Republic, Chad and the mineral-rich Kafia Kingi enclave at the Sudan-South Sudan-CAR frontier where Kony is reportedly hiding. With the LRA threat diminished, Uganda said the ADF, long reported beaten, regrouped and re-emerged stronger, prompting a surprise and targeted December 2017 air raid by Uganda People\u2019s Defence Air Force on the latter\u2019s positions in eastern DRC.<\/p>\n<p>However, despite these operations, the threat of subversive groups against Uganda, according to intelligence agencies, has continued to multiply in eastern DRC that President Museveni last Saturday evening said is \u201cungoverned\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The latest rebel group reported to have been formed, with bases in eastern DRC, is Uganda Homeland Liberation Force, a dozen of whose alleged commanders, including Howard Openjuru, have since been arrested from Zombo, Njeru and Kampala.<\/p>\n<p><b>UPDF\u2019s battles in DRC<\/b><\/p>\n<p>In December 2008, the UPDF launched Operation Lightning Thunder, which dislodged Joseph Kony\u2019s LRA rebels from Garamba National Park in northeast DRC, scattering them to the Central African Republic, Chad and the mineral-rich Kafia Kingi enclave at the Sudan-South Sudan-CAR frontier where Kony is reportedly hiding.<\/p>\n<p>With the LRA threat diminished, Uganda said the ADF, long reported beaten, regrouped and re-emerged stronger, prompting a surprise and targeted December 2017 air raid by Uganda People\u2019s Defence Air Force on the latter\u2019s positions in eastern DRC.<\/p>\n<p>However, despite these operations, the threat of subversive groups against Uganda, according to intelligence agencies, has continued to multiply in eastern DRC that President Museveni last Saturday evening said is \u201cungoverned\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The latest rebel group reported to have been formed, with bases in eastern DRC, is Uganda Homeland Liberation Force, a dozen of whose alleged commanders, including Howard Openjuru, have since been arrested from Zombo, Njeru and Kampala.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/uganda\">Uganda<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Uganda.
