UPDF alerts on an infiltration by ADF terrorists,the grobal terror index reports more terror threats globally

 








As Uganda alerts of an infiltration by some ADF terrorists,let's us look at the grobal index of terrorism as shared by the Kenyan counter terrorism police.As it is stressed out,information about terrorists should not be  classified information, it should get out to public, for the fight against terror must start with the civilian population.


Sub-Saharan Africa countries continue to bear the brunt of terrorism leading to deaths and affecting economies.


Terrorism thrives in countries with existing conflicts hence there is need to address conflict situations to guarantee peace and security.

Terrorism in all its manifestations remains a global threat that States need to work together to reduce its impact and harm to guarantee peace and security.


It's alarming that terrorist groups  continue to kill innocent people, cause fear and pandemonium across the world.


Fighting terrorism requires States to collaborate by sharing information/intelligence, security agencies to conduct joint trainings, carry out joint counter terrorism operations, develop stringent counter terrorism laws and arrest/prosecute terrorists within their jurisdictions to act as deterrence to engaging in terrorism activities.


States, United Nations and other global institutions need also to firmly condemn States engaging in State sponsored terrorism.


Terrorism is a transnational crime that can be best dealt with through global partnership.


As a regional counter terrorism superpower, Kenya has been instrumental in providing leadership in the fight against terrorism in the region.


It remains Somalia's dependable partner in fighting AlShabaab, which is significantly degraded but still poses a threat in the region.


States need to support Somalia in fighting AlShabaab to make the region safe and secure.

Countries need to deploy human and material resources to fight terrorism to safeguard people and properties.


It's clear terror groups are our enemies that need to be fought on air, land and sea.


Terrorism is claiming many innocent people globally hence stakeholders need to do everything humanly possible to reverse the trend.


It's instructive to note that war against terrorism is too important to be left to governments alone.


Citizens remain first line of defense in war on terror by providing information to security agencies for action.

United kingdom's Coronavirus Contact Tracing App Assists 'Surveillance State'

In the letter, the signatories - which include tech justice NGO Foxglove and digital rights campaigners Access Now - say the proposed app could be another step towards a surveillance state. Campaign groups have written an open letter to UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson warning GCHQ and its digital arm, the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC), will have the capacity to re-identify the phones of people who install the country’s coronavirus contact-tracing app. They also note the legal framework underpinning the software, which is currently being trialled on the Isle of Wight, is believed to be inadequate to protect people from misuse of their data by the Joint Committee on Human Rights. “Parliament has to quickly issue an adequate legal framework that guarantees users’ human rights protection.
