Uganda Joins Iran-Israel Conflict: World War 3 Escalation?
Uganda’s Chief of Defense Forces, Gen. Muhoozi Kainerugaba, publicly declared strong support for Israel amidst its conflict with Iran. He stated that any threat to Israel would draw Uganda into the war, emphasizing that “On the side of Israel!” is Uganda’s stance. Kainerugaba further offered the assistance of the Ugandan defense forces to both the US and Israel, asserting Uganda’s capability to resolve the conflict swiftly and questioning why bombing is preferred over supporting allies. This declaration follows recent announcements of Uganda’s intention to build a statue honoring Lt.-Col. Yonatan Netanyahu, symbolizing the deepening ties between the two nations.
