Rwanda does a Putin in Congo

A military beret bearing the Armed Forces of the Democratic Republic of Congo (FARDC) insignia lies discarded alongside a pile of unspent cartridges near an abandoned, bullet-riddled military truck in Goma on January 31, 2025. The Rwandan-backed armed group M23 moved south as it closed in on a key military airport in DR Congo on January 31, 2025, a day after pledging to take the capital Kinshasa and as international criticism mounted. The group's capture of most of Goma, the capital of North Kivu province, earlier in the week was a dramatic escalation in a region that has seen decades of conflict involving multiple armed groups.
