The Democratic Republic of Congo is currently facing severe unrest as the M23 rebel group continues to assert control over key regions in the North Kivu province. The ongoing conflict has led to significant humanitarian crises, with millions displaced and international tensions escalating.
On Sunday, the Congolese military reported renewed clashes with M23 rebels in the vicinity of Kirumba, a town that has been under rebel control since June. The M23 movement has been accused of receiving support from Rwanda and Uganda, claims both countries deny. The Congolese government has been actively trying to suppress the rebellion, but previous ceasefire agreements have failed to bring lasting peace.
