Uganda is withdrawing from Prince Harry’s Invictus Games, according to the country’s chief of defence, reversing a decision to participate announced only two months ago.
The announcement means Uganda will no longer take part in the international sporting event for wounded, injured and sick military personnel and veterans. The supplied information does not give a reason for the withdrawal.
Uganda had confirmed its participation two months before the latest statement. The change was announced by the country’s chief of defence, but no further details about the decision or its potential effect on the Games were provided.
The latest known position is that Uganda has pulled out of the event. No subsequent explanation or replacement arrangements have been set out in the available information.
