Despite a fragile ceasefire brokered by Angola, fighting has intensified between the M23 rebel group and the Congolese army in eastern Congo.
The M23, backed by Rwanda, has made significant territorial gains in recent months, raising concerns about the stability of the region.
The renewed clashes have led to displacement, casualties, and further deterioration of the humanitarian situation.
The Congolese army and pro-government militias are struggling to contain the M23’s advance, particularly in the areas of Lubero and Masisi.
The ongoing conflict has had a devastating impact on the civilian population, with many forced to flee their homes and seek refuge in safer areas.
The international community is urging both sides to adhere to the ceasefire agreement and engage in peaceful dialogue to resolve their differences.
