UN Security Council to Address Escalating Violence in DR Congo
Intense combat has erupted near Goma, the capital of North Kivu in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), as Rwandan-backed M23 rebels advance, prompting both countries to withdraw their diplomats. The UN Security Council is convening an emergency meeting to address the escalating violence, following deadly clashes between peacekeeping forces and the M23 group, which has been accused of severe human rights violations. Official reports indicate at least three Congolese soldiers and nine South African peacekeepers have died amid the fighting, contributing to a worsening humanitarian crisis with thousands displaced. The M23 has gained significant ground in the eastern DRC, leading to concerns about the effectiveness of current peacekeeping efforts. Humanitarian agencies are warning of a deteriorating situation as civilians flee to safety. The UN has called for dialogue to resolve the conflict, although tensions remain high.
