Brigade I need you to spread this post✊🏿
Minister Nduhungirehe in New York shushed MONUSCO accordingly 🙌🏾
He said: “In October 2023, an entire village of 300 Congolese Tutsi homes was burned down by militias supported by the DRC in Masisi territory. Where was MONUSCO then? Since February this year, Banyamulenge villages in the south have been bombed with drones and fighter jets from the DRC right where MONUSCO is stationed. This is a problem of governance and political inclusion that we must address.”
There is level of diplomacy ✊🏿
🇨🇩ON THE GROUND IN GOMA: A DOCTOR'S ACCOUNT
After spending time in M23-controlled Goma, Dr. Alain Destexhe shares a perspective that contradicts some of the mainstream narratives.
He says that since M23 took over on January 28, Goma is unexpectedly calm.
Shops are open, streets are clean, and M23 forces are seen as incorruptible.
Even traffic rules are being followed, a big change from before.
Destexhe claims that M23’s victory was stunning—a few thousand fighters defeated 40,000+ FARDC troops backed by regional forces and even Romanian mercenaries.
Despite the intense battle, civilian casualties were reportedly low, and services like water and electricity were restored quickly.
He claims that the fire at Munzenze prison, which killed dozens of women locked inside, happened before M23 arrived, while most reports say they were attacked afterward.
Hospitals are still packed, mostly with wounded FARDC soldiers—some just teenagers.
NGOs stepped in, but some are accused of turning IDP camps into "humanitarian businesses."
Water shortages are still a major issue, but trade is improving now that M23 lifted transport bans.

🇷🇼 DID THE WEST GET IT WRONG ON RWANDA?
The U.S. and U.K. just sanctioned Rwanda’s defense minister, blaming the country for the ongoing war in eastern Congo.
But some experts say the U.S. is backing the wrong side and ignoring the real cause of the conflict.
For years, Congo’s government has reportedly failed to keep peace agreements and has even harbored terrorist groups tied to the 1994 Rwandan genocide.
Now, Rwanda says it had no choice but to act, claiming its forces discovered stockpiles of weapons that point to a possible Congolese attack.
Critics argue Western officials are making a major mistake by treating Rwanda as the aggressor while Congo bombs civilians in rebel-held areas.
Some believe the real solution is reforming Congo’s government, not punishing Rwanda.

As for M23. I think it is very, very dangerous for anybody to fight those brothers of ours. They are NOT terrorists! They are fighting for the rights of Tutsi in DRC.
Ce jeune, leader d’un camp de réfugiés rwandais, a crié avec un mégaphone 📢, envoyé des lettres ✉️, alerté l'ONU 🌍, l'UE 🇪🇺, la France 🇫🇷, la Belgique 🇧🇪 et l'Allemagne 🇩🇪 sur l’oubli des réfugiés. "Je pense qu'ils nous ont oubliés", disait-il.
Aujourd'hui, il revient chez lui, arme à la main 🔫, avec les M23.
Et que font-ils ? L’ONU, l’UE, la France, la Belgique et l’Allemagne se précipitent pour condamner et demander aux M23 de se retirer de Bukavu, oubliant qu'ils ont alimenté ce chaos par leur inaction.
Ils ont ignoré les souffrances, maintenant ils dénoncent les conséquences.

We are threatened war by President of Rwanda because our role in DRC is questionable.
South African army cannot be the bodyguard of Kinshasa’s minerals. Our soldiers must come back home because they are there to secure the mineral interests for the politicians elit in Congo.
I guess now most South Africans will understand what’s going on in Congo.
