Uganda Claims to Occupy 2 DR Congo Towns to "Prevent Ethnic Clashes"| Firstpost Africa | N18G  

Uganda says its army has taken control of two towns in eastern DR Congo- Kasenyi and Tchomia, to prevent "inter-ethnic fighting." The move, however, signals Kampala’s expanding military footprint in the region. While Uganda originally deployed troops to fight ISIS-linked ADF rebels alongside the Congolese army, its presence has grown amid reports of links to M23 insurgents and interests in resource-rich territories. The video also covers Uganda’s controversial economic projects in DRC, including oil exploration with China and France. Analysts believe Uganda’s motives go beyond security, raising questions about regional ambitions, mineral control, and the militarization of foreign policy.
