DRC army hunting for M23 rebels, fight each other due to miscommunication

As the hunt for M23 rebels in the Eastern part of the Democratic Republic of Congo continues, the Congolese national army,FARDC spent the whole day of Monday fighting against each other, before they realized it.

The cumulative number of refugees manually registered from 28th March 2022 is 32,601 individuals of 16,793 Households.

The East African countries, excluding Rwandan Forces,will soon deploy in Eastern DRC to counter the M23 rebels.
