M23 REBELS MAKES SIGNIFICANT GAINS IN E.DRC
The Democratic Republic of Congo government has urged Rwanda to cease its alleged support for the M23 rebel group. Rwanda denies any links. The M23 has made significant territorial gains, including the capture of Goma in January and Bukavu, where residents welcomed them over the weekend. The DRC government confirmed the rebels have “occupied” this second major city in the eastern mineral-rich region.
