Ugandan Muslim Soldiers Ready to Fight Alongside Israel, Commander Pledges

Israeli traveler and documentarian Yitzhak Carmeli continues to share footage from his journey to Uganda, exploring the land of the gorillas and the lost Ten Tribes of Israel. During his trip, Carmeli highlighted the presence of Salim, a Muslim commando soldier who is part of the Ugandan army forces stationed along the sensitive border with the Democratic Republic of Congo. Carmeli noted that thousands of Muslim soldiers like Salim serve in Uganda's military, actively engaged in combating ISIS terrorists terrorizing western Uganda.

Four months ago, Uganda's military chief, General Muhoozi Kainerugaba, pledged readiness to deploy 100,000 African soldiers, including Muslim troops, to assist Israel if called upon. Kainerugaba, who recently announced his candidacy for Uganda's presidency, further declared that his 500,000-strong army is prepared at any moment to launch an assault on Tehran to defend Israel. Carmeli's reports emphasize the strong military ties and solidarity between Uganda and Israel, underscoring the strategic alliance beyond traditional Western support.

This development reflects a unique partnership where African Muslim soldiers stand ready to support Israel against terrorism and regional threats, highlighting Uganda's commitment to Israel's security. The next steps will likely involve monitoring how this pledge translates into concrete military cooperation amid ongoing regional tensions.
