Fear is spreading after the war broke out again in the east of the DRC, 11 people were killed

The most recent information shows the continuation of the renewed fighting between the army of the Democratic Republic of the Congo and the M23 rebels as well as the ADF rebels in the east of the country. The statement announced today Monday by the spokesperson of the DRC army says that the ADF rebels have killed at least 11 civilians in the east of the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The fighting and the killings have been reported at this time when all efforts have been focused on achieving the general election scheduled for December this year. There have been reports of clashes and killings in various parts of the country, including clashes between the M23 rebels and an armed group allegedly supported by the government, which calls itself Congolese Nationalists.

ADF rebels Since the year 2021, the M23 rebels who are one of the many rebel groups in the east of the Congo, are forcibly occupying many areas of the North Kivu province and the government has failed to liberate them. The government of Kinshasa accuses the neighboring country of Rwanda for helping the M23 rebels. The most recent fighting is the one reported in the Masisi District of the North Kivu Region near the border of Rwanda and Uganda, between the M23 rebels and the Nationalist group. The fighting has erupted after six months of relative calm. The army of the East African Community has asked the conflicting parties to return to the ceasefire agreement managed by the leaders of the community. Colonel Guillaume Ndjike Kaiko, spokesman for the governor of North Kivu state, has said that the Congolese army continues to respect the ceasefire as the leaders of the East African Community want, but it is also the responsibility of the government to protect citizens on all sides when the agreement is broken.
