M23 Rebels and Rwandan Forces Seize Control of Goma, Escalating Congo Conflict
The capture of the strategic city in eastern Congo deepens a humanitarian crisis, with international calls for a ceasefire growing louder.
- The M23 rebel group, backed by Rwandan forces, has taken control of Goma, including its airport, after days of intense fighting.
- The conflict has displaced over 400,000 people this month alone, exacerbating an already dire humanitarian crisis in the region.
- Civilians in Goma face severe insecurity, with reports of mass casualties, water shortages, and restricted access to humanitarian aid.
- The Democratic Republic of Congo accuses Rwanda of supporting the M23, while international calls for Rwanda to withdraw and cease its involvement intensify.
- Efforts for peace talks remain stalled, with regional and global actors pushing for an end to hostilities and accountability for human rights abuses.
