Clashes in Goma kill at least 17 as M23 rebels enter city
Fighting has erupted in Goma, Democratic Republic of Congo, as M23 rebels, reportedly backed by Rwanda, declared control over the city, leading to significant casualties. At least 17 people were killed and approximately 370 injured in clashes that followed the rebels' advance, marking the worst escalation in the area since 2012. The Congolese army has faced intense resistance, with some troops surrendering while others continue to engage in combat. Protests against foreign involvement, particularly from Rwanda, have erupted in the capital, as demonstrators targeted U.N. facilities and embassies. Humanitarian concerns are rising as hospitals struggle to cope with the influx of casualties, and fears grow that the conflict could escalate into a broader regional war. Kenyan President William Ruto is set to host a crisis summit with leaders from Congo and Rwanda in response to the escalating violence.
