The President of Uganda Museveni said that they will have to buy drones if they cannot get support from their partners.
President Museveni said that they wanted air support from Turkey and the United States, but they never received that support.
Mr Museveni accused the US forces operating in Somalia with drones for not responding to the attack on the Ugandan army base in Buulo Mareer.
The President of Uganda made this statement in a meeting with Ugandan army commanders as part of the ATMIS operation. In that meeting, Museveni criticized the countries that support Somalia’s aerial attacks.
Uganda lost 54 soldiers in the attack at the end of the month at Buulo Mareer base.
