Self-proclaimed General Shimiray Mwisa, challenged leader of the rebel group Nduma defense of Congo (NDC-RENOVÉ) has taken control of the city of Pinga in Walikale territory since the evening of Tuesday, September 15, 2020.
According to the Kivu Safe Barometer, a branch of the Congo Study Group (GEC), the historical leader of the NDC-RENOVÉ has recovered control of the Katanga neighborhood in pinga after clashes.
This foray occurred after a clash between the dissident troops of the Gilbert Bwira Shuo wing who allegedly attacked some elements of Handlebar in Kailenge village. A village about 3 kilometers from the city of Pinga.
Our sources inform that during this attack, General Handlebar's troops appeared to have won the battle. Which allowed them to progress to Pinga.
In the meantime, elements of the armed forces of the Democratic Republic of Congo (FARDC) have been visible in Pinga and its surroundings for a few months after the abandonment of two factions.
As a reminder, rebel leader shimiray handlebar had been deprived since July 09, 2020 by the movement that accused him of having committed several acts contrary to the ideologies of the movement, including non-respect for international humanitarian and other law.
A situation that had then caused the split of movement, among other things, the Bwira and Handlebar wing which regularly face each other. This would have caused deaths in two parties.
