Update on ADF/ISCAP Commander Abwakasi Mouhammad
Health Concerns
On Saturday, November 23, 2024, Commander Abwakasi Mouhammad, the head of ADF/ISCAP (Allied Democratic Forces/ Islamic State's Central Africa Province) operations, established his headquarters north of Bango town in the Banade-Kainama groupement, Beni-Mbau sector, Beni territory. Abwakasi, who is recovering from injuries, has temporarily settled in the Bango area to rest, as advised by his doctor, due to a bomb fragment wound on his left arm that is showing signs of cancer. According to sources, Commander Abwakasi was injured during an attack by soldiers from Operation Ushujaa in the Mambasa territory.
He was evacuated to the Manguredjipa area in the Lubero territory by his deputy, Zacharie alias Bonge La Chuma, who is currently operating in the Biakato area.
The decision to evacuate Abwakasi to Manguredjipa was strategic, allowing his doctor to reach him from Butembo with necessary medications.
The installation of Abwakasi's men in the Banande-Kainama groupement is expected to facilitate the supply of food and non-food items by his civilian collaborators with minimal obstacles.
Planning to increase attacks
To establish a strong presence in Kainama, Abwakasi's men plan to increase attacks and ambushes on the Oicha-Kamango, Luna-Komanda axes, and the surroundings of Mayangose, near Beni. Abwakasi aims to create a corridor to maintain a link with the Haut-Uele through Ituri while staying close to supply zones to ensure their survival. The Bango area, near the Ugandan border, provides a strategic reinforcement corridor from Uganda to Haut-Uele, where the ADF/ISCAP leader recently established his base.
