Northern Uganda campaign
From Warlike
Q131573160
In the last phase of the Ugandan Bush War from January to March 1986, the National Resistance Army (NRA) conducted a military campaign to conquer northern Uganda beyond the Nile, an area still held by the Uganda National Liberation Army (UNLA) and allied militias that had previously been loyal to the recently deposed government of Ugandan President Tito Okello. After heavy fighting, the NRA emerged victorious, capturing all of the country. The UNLA and its allies largely disbanded their forces or surrendered, though a substantial number also fled into exile to continue resistance. The conquest of northern Uganda by the NRA marked the formal end of the Ugandan Bush War, though another civil war erupted a few months later.
