notes: On 27 October 2020, UPDF and SSPDF soldiers clashed along the disputed border between Lamwo district (Uganda) and Magwi county (South Sudan), with the South Sudanese army claiming the fighting took place at Pogee in Magwi, and the Ugandan forces saying the fighting occurred after South Sudanese soldiers established a road block close to Ngomoromo (Lamwo district; coordinates used at GP2 pending confirmation of event location). 2 SSPDF soldiers were killed and 1 captured, whilst the SSPDF spokesman claimed that two UPDF were killed in fighting (denied by the UPDF). A local Ugandan politician has claimed that SSPDF abducted six women and raped one prior to the clash, although this has not been corroborated by other sources. UPDF have handed the captured soldier and bodies of the deceased to South Sudanese authorities.
