DRC and Ugandan forces warn of possible attacks and sabotage planned by armed groups in the DRC.
A joint communiqué says there is credible intelligence that the group is preparing to launch an attack against civilians while disguised as UPDF soldiers.
Since November, the forces have reported successes, including the destruction of four ADF training camps and the capture of several masterminds involved in recruiting rebels, as well as freeing of hostages.
