Uganda Denies Using Chemical Weapons in South Sudan Amid UN Allegations ‎


Uganda Army (UPDF)


‎Ugandan army has strongly denied accusations of using chemical or barrel weapons in South Sudan, following a recent UN report suggesting that a highly flammable liquid was deployed in aerial strikes. 

‎This comes just weeks after Uganda deployed special forces to South Sudan to support government forces amid ongoing conflict between SSPDF and the white army.

‎The Uganda People’s Defence Force (UPDF) dismissed the allegations, instead accusing First Vice President Riek Machar and his allies of spreading "AI-generated propaganda" to discredit Uganda’s military presence.

‎If verified, the UN’s findings could lead to diplomatic fallout and further scrutiny of foreign military involvement in the conflict. 

‎The situation remains fluid as international bodies and South Sudanese authorities investigate the claims.
