The 1972 invasion of Uganda was an armed attempt by Ugandan insurgents, supported by Tanzania, to overthrow the regime of Idi Amin. Under the orders of former Ugandan President Milton Obote, insurgents launched an invasion of southern Uganda with limited Tanzanian support in September 1972. The rebel force mostly consisted of the "People's Army" whose forces were mainly loyal to Obote, but also included guerillas led by Yoweri Museveni. The operation was hampered by problems from the start, as a planned rebel commando raid had to be aborted, Amin was warned of the impending invasion, and the rebels lacked numbers, training, and equipment. Regardless, the militants occupied a few towns in southern Uganda at the invasion's start. However, no major popular uprising erupted as Obote had hoped.

dbo:abstract
  • غزو أوغندا عام 1972 هو محاولة مسلحة نفذها متمردون أوغنديون مدعومون من تنزانيا للإطاحة بنظام عيدي أمين. بأوامر من الرئيس الأوغندي السابق ميلتون أوبوتي، شن المتمردون الأوغنديون غزوًا لجنوب أوغندا بدعم تنزاني محدود في سبتمبر 1972. تألفت القوة المتمردة بمعظمها من الجيش الشعبي التي كانت قواتها موالية بصورة رئيسية لأوبوتي، ولكن تضمنت أيضًا مليشيات بقيادة يويري موسيفيني. تعرضت العملية لمشاكل من البداية، إذ أحبِطت غارة مخططة لقوات الكوماندوس، وحُذر أمين من الغزو الوشيك وافتقد المتمردون للأعداد الكبيرة والتدريب والتجهيزات. بصرف النظر، احتلت المليشيات عدة قرى جنوب أوغندا في بداية الغزو. ومع ذلك، لم يندلع أي احتجاج شعبي مثلما كان يأمل أوبوتي. دون دعم شعبي وقلة الأعداد والأسلحة، هُزم المتمردون في غضون ساعات على أيدي الموالين لعيدي أمين. قُتل معظم المتمردين أو قُبض عليهم، بينما هرب البقية بفوضى إلى تنزانيا. معززةً بقوات من حلفائها الليبيين ومنظمة التحرير الفلسطينية، شنت القوات الأمنية الأوغندية عمليات لملاحقة وتدمير المتمردين المعزولين، بينما شنت عمليات تطهير سياسية ضد الموالين المحتملين لأوبوتي. في ذلك الوقت، أمر أمين قواته الجوية بالانتقام من خلال الإغارة على تنزانيا، ما دفع تنزانيا إلى تعبئة جيشها على طول الحدود. قبل أن يتصاعد الصراع إلى حرب شاملة بين أوغندا وتنزانيا، وافقت الدولتان على وقت إطلاق النار بوساطة صومالية وصادقت الدولتان على معاهدة لنزع فتيل التوتر. بعيدًا عن ذلك، أساء الصراع إلى العلاقات الأوغندية التنزانية المتوترة أساسًا وساهم في نهاية المطاف في الحرب الأوغندية التنزانية.

  • The 1972 invasion of Uganda was an armed attempt by Ugandan insurgents, supported by Tanzania, to overthrow the regime of Idi Amin. Under the orders of former Ugandan President Milton Obote, insurgents launched an invasion of southern Uganda with limited Tanzanian support in September 1972. The rebel force mostly consisted of the "People's Army" whose forces were mainly loyal to Obote, but also included guerillas led by Yoweri Museveni. The operation was hampered by problems from the start, as a planned rebel commando raid had to be aborted, Amin was warned of the impending invasion, and the rebels lacked numbers, training, and equipment. Regardless, the militants occupied a few towns in southern Uganda at the invasion's start. However, no major popular uprising erupted as Obote had hoped. Without mass civilian support and outnumbered as well as outgunned, the rebels were mostly defeated by Amin's loyalists within hours. Most insurgents were killed or captured, while the rest fled in disarray back to Tanzania. Reinforced by allied Libyan and PLO troops, the Ugandan security forces launched operations to hunt down and destroy rebel stragglers, while initiating political purges against suspected Obote supporters. Meanwhile, Amin ordered his air force to retaliate by bombing Tanzania, prompting the latter to mobilize its army along the border. Before the conflict could escalate into a full war between Uganda and Tanzania, the two countries agreed to a ceasefire under Somali mediation, and subsequently ratified a treaty in Mogadishu to defuse tensions. Despite this, the conflict greatly worsened the already poor relations between Uganda and Tanzania, and ultimately contributed to the Uganda–Tanzania War. (en)
  • A invasão de Uganda em 1972 foi uma tentativa armada dos insurgentes ugandenses, apoiados pela Tanzânia, de derrubar o regime de Idi Amin. Sob as ordens do ex-presidente de Uganda Milton Obote, os insurgentes lançaram uma invasão ao sul de Uganda com apoio limitado da Tanzânia em setembro de 1972. A força rebelde consistia principalmente no "Exército do Povo", cujas tropas eram principalmente leais a Obote, mas também incluíam guerrilhas lideradas por Yoweri Museveni. A operação foi prejudicada por problemas desde o início, pois um raide planejado do comando rebelde teve que ser abortado, Amin foi avisado da invasão iminente e os rebeldes não tinham número, treinamento e equipamento. Apesar disso, os militantes ocuparam algumas cidades no sul de Uganda no início da invasão. No entanto, nenhuma grande revolta popular irrompeu como Obote esperava. Sem o apoio civil em massa e em menor número, bem como desarmados, os rebeldes foram derrotados sobretudo pelos partidários de Amin em poucas horas. A maioria dos insurgentes foi morta ou capturada, enquanto o restante fugiu em desordem de volta para a Tanzânia. Reforçadas por tropas aliadas da Líbia e da Organização para a Libertação da Palestina (OLP), as forças de segurança de Uganda lançaram operações para perseguir e destruir os rebeldes errantes, enquanto iniciavam expurgos políticos contra supostos apoiadores de Obote. Ao mesmo tempo, Amin ordenou que sua força aérea retaliasse bombardeando a Tanzânia, levando esta última a mobilizar seu exército ao longo da fronteira. Antes que o conflito pudesse se transformar em uma guerra total entre Uganda e Tanzânia, os dois países concordaram em um cessar-fogo sob mediação somali e, subsequentemente, ratificaram um tratado em Mogadíscio para acalmar as tensões. Apesar disso, o conflito piorou muito as relações já precárias entre Uganda e Tanzânia e, em última análise, contribuiu para a Guerra Uganda-Tanzânia. (pt)
