Rebels Advance Towards Strategic Town in Eastern DR Congo | Firstpost Africa
Civilians were fleeing as M23 rebels reportedly closed in on another strategic town in the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo. Reports say the rebels are just five kilometres away from the centre of Kanyabayonga town. Civilians in the region have started fleeing to the north and the town is in the process of emptying itself this comes after the rebels seized the town of Kyaghala earlier this week which led people to flee towards Kanyabayonga. Clashes were also reported in the Masisi area around Sake which is only about 20 kilometres west of Goma. The string of clashes comes as the M23 has dramatically amplified its attacks in recent months.

Hasn't Congo got a professional army,or is this some game over minerals.

[@matthewmark7224]

Congo is led by the same trash people that ran Rwanda before Kagame. they have to go. they refuse to share power with the Tutsi Congolese, who inhabit resource rich lands. these people have been refugees for years. they've decided to fight back. it's no one's fault that the current rulers are disorganized imbeciles.

[@butterfly9274]

I think some politicians are involved in their own war sadly
