What cities have been seized by M23 fighters in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo?
M23 fighters, backed by Rwandan soldiers, have seized both Goma and Bukavu, the capital cities of North and South Kivu provinces respectively. This represents a significant territorial advance in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo as the armed group continues to push into additional territories in the region. The seizure of these strategic provincial capitals marks a serious escalation in the conflict and has prompted international concern, including condemnation from the UK over the violation of DRC's sovereignty. The situation has broader implications for regional stability as the M23 group extends its control in eastern DRC.
