Uganda's leading opposition figure Bobi Wine has been shot in the leg and “seriously injured” in a confrontation with police outside the capital, Kampala. That's according to his political party. Images shared by his close associates show a bleeding wound below the left knee. It is not immediately clear whether Wine was targeted with a live bullet or a tear gas projectile. Street confrontations between Wine and the police have frequently descended into violence, but this is the first time he has been wounded in such a way. Wine became one of the most recognizable opposition figures in Africa when he ran for president in 2021.
