AI Summary:
Kampala’s military chief announced on Tuesday that the troops had been sent to help “secure” Juba, the capital of Uganda’s northern neighbour. Tension between President Salva Kiir and First Vice President Riek Machar are spiralling as a power-sharing deal unravels. Sporadic fighting has broken out in South Sudan in recent days as tension threatens to pull Kiirian and Machar back into conflict. Analysts warn there is a threat of renewal of the conflict. The entry of Ugandan troops mirrors a similar move after the civil war broke out in 2013 when Kampala deployed soldiers to Juba.
