Uganda begins withdrawing troops from Somalia after nearly twenty years in the peacekeeping mission
Uganda has announced the start of a phased withdrawal of its troops from Somalia. The first group of 109 service members left Mogadishu, and the full withdrawal of about 6,500 soldiers, including the AUSSOM mission contingent, is planned by the end of 2027. The decision coincided with the end of US funding and the closure of the UN political mission in the country.
