Defence and army spokesman Lt. Col. Felix Kulayigye said the soldiers have been flown to Nairobi International Hospital for treatment. “We are awaiting to see how best they will recover,” Lt. Col. Kulayigye told Sunday Monitor on phone on Friday. He said the soldiers were evacuated to Kenya on Friday morning, after developing symptoms similar to those presented by 17 other soldiers who were admitted in critical condition. Over 4,000 UPDF soldiers are deployed in Somalia to pacify the country from warring parties in a war that has destabilised the Horn of Africa nation for over two decades. Lt.Col. Kulayigye said a team from the World Health Organisation has joined the UPDF medical team to diagnose the disease.
