According to Col Akiiki, one UPDF soldier was killed and another wounded.

The army said the rebels crossed River Semuliki into Kyanja on the border with the Democratic Republic of Congo.

The rebels who numbered between 30 and 40 attacked the villages forcing residents to flee their homes in Kibuuku, Butungama and Bweramule sub-counties and seek shelter.

DR Congo and UPDF forces launched a joint offensive against the ADF in November 2021 under operation Shujaa which has since weakened the Islamic State group-affiliated militia.
