Congolese forces of IS-CAP had greatly increased their area of operations, grown in numbers, and freed over 2,000 prisoners. By late 2022, IS-CAP had reduced its activity, but it once again increased the rate of its attacks in early 2023. However, the Islamic State forces were increasingly pushed out of their strongholds by the Ugandan and Congolese troops engaged in Operation Shujaa. Regardless, IS-CAP troops managed to destroy PULI, the ADF splinter group which had refused to pledge loyalty to the Islamic State, in January 2023. PULI's survivors, including one of Mukulu's sons, mostly agreed to join IS-CAP after their defeat.
