During the engagement, the two military leaders discussed enhancing military cooperation and reviewing progress in joint security efforts, particularly the successes of Operation Shujaa, a UPDF-FARDC collaboration that has significantly degraded the ADF rebels and restored stability in Eastern DRC.
