KAMPALA, Nov. 28 (Xinhua) -- The Uganda military on Wednesday said talks between Uganda and Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) over joint military operations against the Allied Democratic Forces (ADF) scheduled for this weekend have been postponed to allow for more consultations.

Brig. Richard Karemire, Uganda's military spokesperson, told Xinhua in a telephone interview that the planned Saturday bilateral meeting between authorities in Kampala and Kinshasa on conducting joint operations against the ADF who recently killed UN peacekeepers and DRC soldiers have been postponed.

"The meeting is still being planned. It has been rescheduled to another date to be announced soon," said Karemire.

ADF is a Ugandan rebel group hiding in eastern DRC where it is causing mayhem.
