Drone Strike in Rubaya, DRC, Kills M23 Spokesman Willy Ngoma
A pre-dawn drone strike near the mineral-rich town of Rubaya has killed Willy Ngoma, the public face of the M23 rebellion in eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo. The targeted attack raises urgent questions about the future of the fragile Washington-brokered ceasefire, the control of coltan mines, and whether the region is sliding back toward full-scale conflict.
