Uganda, which had recently joined Prince Harry’s Invictus Games, abruptly withdrew two months later. The decision was announced by General Muhoozi Kainerugaba, who said it was to avoid being construed as opposed to His Majesty King Charles III after a letter confirming Prince Harry and Meghan were no longer working royals. The Ugandan defence chief notes that participation is at his discretion, while the Invictus Games organisers have not received official confirmation. The boycott reflects broader diplomatic tensions and underscores the Games’ role in supporting wounded veterans.
