Uganda Approves UPDF Deployment to Gaza Under International Stabilisation Force

Uganda’s Parliament has approved the deployment of the Uganda People’s Defence Forces (UPDF) to Gaza as part of an International Stabilisation Force. The decision is in line with a proposal initially put forth by former US President Donald Trump.

However, opposition members of parliament have raised concerns regarding the deployment, questioning the neutrality of the force, the welfare of the deployed troops, and the legal framework governing the operation.

The approval marks Uganda’s participation in the international effort, with the specifics of the deployment and the role of the UPDF in the stabilisation force yet to be fully detailed.
