Uganda Army Revolt Grows to 3000 Soldiers
Nairobi based Daily Nation reports over 3000 Ugandan soldiers have joined a mutiny against President Amin, with 1000 in a battalion and about 2000 others already vowing to topple his regime. Independent observers doubt the spread matches local claims. Amin had threatened to wage war against Kenya over hijacked hostages and sought peace due to internal strain and supply shortfalls. He also told France he would return the hijacked airliner seized by pro Palestinian terrorists.
