Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is set to travel to Uganda on Monday to meet with Ugandan President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni for one day. He is set to travel with a group of approximately 45 other delegates. Netanyahu last visited Uganda in 2016 for the 40th anniversary of the Israeli raid in Entebbe where his brother was killed.
Over the last two decades, diplomatic relations between the two countries have continued to grow after cutting all ties in 1972 and renewing their relationship in 1994. One rumor surfaced that Uganda is intending to open an embassy in Jerusalem, but their secretary at the ministry of foreign affairs, Ambassador Patrick Mugoya, denied the claim.
