The governments of Uganda and the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) have agreed to continue joint military operations against the Allied Democratic Forces (ADF) rebels, signalling the persistent problem of the armed group for both countries.

And it means Uganda People’s Defence Forces and the Congolese Armed Forces (Fardc) will continue to work together in Ituri and North Kivu provinces in eastern DRC.
