M23 leader speaks on ongoing war in Congo

Congo has become a war environment, which has led to global panic. Armies from neighboring countries and foreign mercenaries have made their way to the government.M23 leader, Corneille Nangaa stated that they will take the war to Congo's capital, Kinshasa. A conflict arose in the Eastern Congo border, where South African troops were allocated, they were ambushed by the M23 forces, which led to the death of 13 South African soldiers. The South African president, Honourable Ramaphosa, claimed that the Rwandese were responsible for the 13 deaths, stating that Rwanda's president, Honourable Kagame, was the one who funded the M23. Later on, the Rwandan president stated that most of the M23 were Congolese and not Rwandans. Although that said we see that the M23 rebels are rebels who are backed by Rwanda, and have a mission to cleanse the Republic from unjust leadership stated the M23 leader. At the end of January 2025, the Rwandan president stated that he had spoken to the South African President, who he said pretended to be a peacemaker while he supported the FDLR who are not supposed to be in Congo said Kagame. He goes ahead to state that Rwanda is ready for any confrontation by South Africa. Malema, Leader of EFF, stated that it was Rwanda who was involved in 13 murders of south africans, he also stated that the South African borders are captured near Goma port, where soldiers have no will on there which is humiliating to the South African Army. After the ceasing of Goma by the rebel forces, there was an estimated total death of 2900 and people were left to leave their homelands and seek refuge in Neighbouring countries. A court military international order was issued to arrest the M23 leader on charges of war crimes and treason. We are yet to uncover the undying war. What specific actions will the international community take to address the conflict in Congo? How is the M23 being funded and supported despite international scrutiny? What are the long-term implications for the Congolese population amidst this ongoing conflict? These are the questions that face the people of Congo.
