Uganda's Museveni vows revenge on al-Shabab over blasts

Kampala, 15 July-(ANA)-Uganda's President Yoweri Museveni has said he will crush Somalia's al-Shabab over Sunday's deadly Kampala blasts which killed 74 people.

He said he wanted to send up to 20,000 troops to Somalia to "eliminate" the hardline Islamist group.

Al-Shabab has said it was behind the twin attacks on people watching the World Cup final because Ugandan troops are supporting the Somali government.

Mr Museveni said other countries would now send troops to Mogadishu.(ANA)
