A Ugandan court charged 36 opposition supporters on Monday with terrorism-related offences after they were deported from neighbouring Kenya where they had travelled to attend a training course, court papers seen by Reuters showed.
The 36 people, who are members of the Forum for Democratic Change (FDC), one of Uganda’s biggest opposition parties, deny the charges. Their lawyer, Erias Lukwago, told reporters outside the magistrates’ court in Kampala the charges were “ridiculous”.

The case comes amid protests by young people in both Uganda and Kenya against corruption, high taxes and other grievances.
Kenyan authorities detained and then deported the 36 people after they had travelled to the western Kenyan city of Kisumu on July 23 to take part in a leadership and governance training course, their lawyer and party officials said.
During their detention in Kenya “their properties were confiscated, including computers and phones. They were tortured and several injured,” Kiiza Besigye, a key figure in the FDC and a veteran opponent of Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni, said in a post on the X platform on Sunday.
Reuters could not independently confirm those accusations.
The court charge sheet accused the 36 people of travelling to Kenya “for the purpose of providing or receiving terrorist training”. They are now being held at a prison about 50 kilometres (31 miles) northwest of the capital.
Opposition critics and human rights campaigners have long accused Museveni’s government of using fabricated charges to clamp down on his opponents. Government officials deny this.
Museveni, 79, has led the East African country of 46 million since 1986.
Last week security personnel detained more than 100 young Ugandans for participating in protests against rampant corruption among government officials.
The Ugandan demonstrators were drawing inspiration from weeks of youth-led protests in Kenya that forced President William Ruto to withdraw proposed tax hikes.
So oil is really really running thin now, and prices are plummeting. Something is wrong with the market.
Poor USA, do you have no shame?
First screw Iran and then screw Venezuela and now screwing the Russian Federation.
Do you think people are blind and deaf?
Print more funny money.
if China is your only friend, you have no friends? that's the most stupid thing a ever heard this weekend.
Russia is still selling oil to other countries in Asia normaly. Even the Europeans are buying Russia's oil and gas because they can't live without it.
What investors want to know is how long oil will be over $90 . If oilprice could do a piece on this it would be great. I'm hoping myself it will stay over 100 for the next 4-5 years.
XD XD XD come on, stop talking about countries as if they had "emotions", that´s for school nationalists programs; Anybody with a basic knowledge of geopolitics knows that countries have no friends nor enemies, just interests… Like when US was aligned with Saudi Arabia bc then US imported more that what they bought in fossil fuel…so, could it be about changing now? bc the interests of US are changing since they are producing more oil and LNG (and after planning "intervene" Venezuela and accusing the regime there now US is in talkings with Venezuela XD XD XD, or when in december 2021 US (being now exporters) started making long term contracts for supplying LNG to China XD XD XD, Of course with Russia idea was to impede them to sell LNG to Germany ). Anybody talking supposedly seriously makes one laugh when saying that countries are friends or enemies…
How about Canada?

By Freda Kreier NOVEMBER 5, 2021 AT 3:33 PM Global temperatures are rising and so, it seems, is part of the sky.
Atmosphere readings collected by weather balloons in the Northern Hemisphere over the last 40 years reveal that climate change is pushing the upper boundary of the troposphere — the slice of sky closest to the ground — steadily upward at a rate of 50 to 60 meters per decade

"A team led by physical oceanographers at Scripps Institution of Oceanography at the University of California San Diego shows in a new study how plumes of warm water are flowing into the Arctic Ocean from the Pacific Ocean and accelerating sea ice melt from below,” said Jennifer MacKinnon, a physical oceanographer at Scripps, chief scientist of the expedition, and lead author of the paper
