Why War Is Escalating In The Congo

Why War Is Escalating In The Congo - The Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) has taken a decisive step toward self-reliance in its fight against armed groups, ordering the withdrawal of the UN peacekeeping mission (MONUSCO) and the East African Community (EAC) regional force. This decision comes amidst mounting frustration with the perceived inability of these international forces to quell rebellions and protect civilians. Relations between the DRC and MONUSCO had been strained for some time. Deadly protests in August highlighted local dissatisfaction with the mission, resulting in clashes with security forces and raising questions about its effectiveness. Similarly, the EAC force’s withdrawal reflects a breakdown in trust. The Congolese government accused the EAC of collaborating with M23 rebels rather than suppressing them, further eroding its legitimacy. For over a year now, tensions have simmered in the Eastern DRC due to a renewed offensive by the M23 rebel group, a force backed by Rwanda. This resurgence has raised serious concerns, with the United Nations warning of a real risk of direct conflict erupting between the two nations. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ✅SUPPORT US /AFFILIATE LINKS Use this affiliate link for your purchases at #MIZIZI International - Support our channel - PayPal: newafricachannel(at) Follow us on Instagram - Follow us on Twitter - Join us on Facebook - ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ✅COPYRIGHT DISCLAIMER The New Africa Channel doesn’t fully own some of the materials compiled in its videos.
