News summary

The Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) has accused Rwanda and the M23 rebel group of jamming GPS signals, significantly endangering civilian air traffic in the conflict-affected eastern province of North Kivu. The DRC government stated that a technical investigation confirmed the Rwandan army's involvement in these cyber-attacks, which have compromised the safety of commercial and humanitarian flights. This comes amid ongoing conflict, with reports indicating that Rwanda has deployed up to 4,000 troops in support of M23 rebels, who are fighting for the rights of the Tutsi minority. The DRC has filed a complaint with the International Civil Aviation Organization seeking sanctions against Rwanda. The allegations underscore the deteriorating relations between the two nations and highlight the humanitarian crisis, with millions displaced due to ongoing violence. Rwanda has yet to respond to these serious accusations.
