KAGAME DENIES BACKING M23 HERE’S WHAT A UN REPORT SAYS

In the week commemorating three decades since the g*nocid* that killed some 800,000 Tutsis (including some Hutu and Twa people), Rwanda’s Paul Kagame has denied his country is backing the M23 rebel group - which is formed of ethnic Tutsi, and is fighting in neighbouring DRC.

However, a UN report released in December 2023 casts serious doubt on Kagame’s narrative. It presented strong evidence that M23 in fact enjoy the support of Rwanda’s military.

A recent flare-up in violence in DR Congo’s east has seen hundreds of thousands displaced, as the rebel group made inroads. The instability has been lucrative to the dozens of armed groups operating in the country, who profiteer from activities like illegal mining, human-trafficking and use of child labour in the resource-rich country.
