Sharjah 24 – AFP: Three people were killed and 33 injured in twin suicide bombings in Uganda's capital Kampala on Tuesday, police said, the latest in a string of attacks targeting the country.
"So far 33 are injured and five are critically injured," police spokesman Fred Enanga told a press conference, adding that three people were killed in the attacks which were carried out by three suicide bombers affiliated to a "domestic terror group linked to" the Allied Democratic Forces (ADF.

Police spokesman Fred Enanga said, "the hallmarks (of the attacks) are consistent with the ADF", an armed group active in the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo that the US has linked to Daesh group and which has been blamed for a string of attacks targeting Uganda.
