"It's an extraordinary feat to give birth to twins" for a 70-year-old mother, Dr. Edward Tamale Sali, who supervised her pregnancy and delivery, told AFP.
The mother, Safina Namukwaya, described the birth of the twins, a boy, and a girl, on Wednesday as a "miracle".
Further, Dr Tamale confirmed that Namukwaya and the babies are in good health and are still under observation at a facility in the capital, Kampala.
Safina Namukwaya usually lives in rural Masaka, some 120 kilometers west of Kampala.
