Uganda finds jihadist bomb-training facility – army

Uganda’s military says it has discovered bomb-making material at what it called a training facility west of the capital, Kampala.

It said it belonged to the rebel Allied Democratic Forces – a Ugandan militia that has pledged allegiance to the Islamic State group.

The authorities recovered nails, wires and bullets from a tunnel dug in one of the rooms of a house.

Three people have been detained – police say they had already bought a car and were planning an attack.

The ADF has been blamed for a series of bomb attacks in Uganda late last year.
