M23 vs wazalendo crashes in Tongo

 Intelligence reports on our desk indicate that since  8:00 Am this morning,there is a fierce crash between the wazalendo and M23 along the Tongo -Kalengera axis.In Kishishe ,the wazalendo protesters violently entered Kishishe at around 9:30AM this morning.

Major General Chiko was never in Buteembo as claimed by some media outlets

As indicated in videos below! Chiko is on Frontline now.

FARDC formally denies accusations that it describes as “false” and “misleading” against General Maj Chicko Tshitambwe Jérôme, Commander of operations on the Northern front. The spokesperson for the FARDC on the Northern Front, Lieutenant Mbuyi Reagan, says that certain “false” and “misleading” articles published in the online media concerning rumors spread about any presence of his Commander in Butembo are unfounded. The army strongly condemns this “erroneous” information concerning the presence of its Commander in Butembo. The army affirms that these are facts fabricated by the enemies of peace concerning the operations carried out in this eastern part of the country. “Currently, the Commander of the Northern Front is fighting at the front with his troops to strengthen his positions in Kirumba and consolidate those of Kaseyi and Alimbongo,” said Lieutenant Mbuyi

Felix Tshisekedi held a defence meeting to discuss the fall of kanyabayonga

The deterioration of the security situation in the province of North Kivu marked by the fall of the strategic city of Kanyabayonga in the hands of the M23 rebels supported by Kigali was at the center of the meeting of the Higher Defense Council chaired this Saturday, June 29 in the City of the African Union by Félix Tshisekedi. This situation allows the rebellion to strengthen its influence in the province of North Kivu. According to the report of the meeting made by government spokesperson Patrick Muyaya and, without however citing them, measures were proposed to the Head of State by the military authorities to retake as quickly as possible the different areas occupied by the M23 rebels. "The President of the Republic convened this meeting of the expanded Higher Defense Council to take stock of the situation in general. Obviously we spoke about the operational situation of the country in general in all three defense zones but there are "There was a particular emphasis on the events in Kanyabayonga," the government spokesperson said. And to continue: "After nearly 3 hours of discussions and an overview with the various military authorities, perspectives, measures were proposed to the President of the Republic so that the armed forces of the DRC can very quickly recover order in this part of the country and retake certain other localities which were occupied by the Rwandan forces because that is what it is about. At the same time, tribute was paid to the FARDC who sacrifice themselves for the defense of the integrity of the national territory. Also, a call for unity was launched to better confront this aggression. "It is therefore important that in this context that the Congolese be wary of everything they read on social networks so as not to give in to the enemy's game, you know that it is also on this ground that the game is being played to demobilize the Congolese but also to affect the morale of our valiant soldiers who are engaged on the front so here we reiterate the call of the President of the Republic to continue to trust the FARDC for which the government of the Republic as well as himself will make everything available so that order can be restored and very quickly", indicated the government spokesperson. On the ground, this situation has once again caused the displacement of civilian populations. After Kanyabayonga on Friday, two other large towns in southern Lubero (North Kivu) came under the control of the M23 rebels this Saturday, June 29. These are Kayna and Kirumba. The latter is the main commercial center of South Lubero. According to sources in the area, rebels from the Luofu axis and others from Kanyabayonga joined Saturday morning in Kayna before continuing their path to Kirumba, the "entity they took without a fight" at 3 p.m. local time. On site, a source said that the rebels have seized the important military camp of Kasando where they are said to have taken significant ammunition abandoned by the army.

Major Chiko Tshitambwe organise his forces to block M23 advances after the fall of Kanyabayonga

 

This Saturday morning, the rebels took control of the cities of Luofu and Kayna in the territory of Lubero. Major General Chiko Tshitambwe, Commander of the Northern Front, reorganizes and mobilizes the troop leaders to block the rebels who have the ambition to overflow to Alimbongo and thus cut off the road to the FARDC still present in Kirumba. Contrary to the rumors spread by the digital army of M23_RDF and by certain populations manipulated by the enemy, as well as by some political and civil actors from the Far North of the North Kivu province and the country, Major General Chiko Tshitambwe is neither in Butembo nor in Beni(There is video circulating on social media that Genral narrowly escaped linching by the civilians who wanted to throw him outta a hotel in Butembo). He is actually on the front line. It should be noted that according to several testimonies, it is thanks to the rigor of General Major General Chiko Tshitambwe that the city of Kanyabayonga held for more than 30 days before falling yesterday into the hands of the M23 rebels who received sufficient reinforcement in men and ammunition to relaunch the assaults on Fardc.

The real intelligence report on the Fall of Kanyabayonga

 On the evening of Sunday, June 23rd, 2024, Major General Chico Tshitambwe learned through his informants that Brigadier General Boudouin Ngaruye was departing from Kitchanga for the Kanyabayonga axis with a reinforcement of four battalions (one Brigade) of RDF forces, a combination of regular and special forces.The M23 has lost numerous men on the kanyabayonga operation but to them it seems ,the loss of men is not a worry.We will soon establish the reasons why M23 remains resilient despite numerous losses in terms of men.

By 20/06/2024,the FARDC had already known that the Enemy forces (M23)had been ordered to start attacking with in coming forty night(2*Weeks).

The FARDC categorically had known that  the first attacks were to begin in the next 7Days and as I talk now this might be the first series of these attacks.

 FARDC had even received reports that the planned attacks would  be stronger than the previous ones, and would  mainly target FDLR and Wazalendos who are in the zones near FDLR control.

The FARDC units deployed in Sake,had been informed to prepare enough and get ready.The M23 High Command, had ordered  launching of multiple attacks on Sake and consolidate it, so as frustrate and suffocate Goma.

 On Kibumba axis, there were reports  of M23 having established a Basic Trainning Camp(BTC) for new numerous recruits, those recruits were a big of reinforcements  in terms of Human who had been enmassed d from various locations around East Africa and were under going vigorous and hard Trainning.

Another report indicated a  BTC set in Rumangabo mil camp where  Recruits were going through vigorous Trainning in Rumangabo with the main aim of taking Kanyabayonga.The M23 for almost  weeks had been studying the FARDC patterns and had enmassed numerous reinforcements both in human,ammunitions and other logistics.The failure for the gorvenment of DRC to send reinforcements is a factor but reluctancy and failure to value and timely use intelligence information played a key role in the fall of Kanyabayonga.

M23 had for the whole three weeks have been analysing tips of all information and planning accordingly and that's why the reports of delayed FARDC reinforcements and other reports got them guts to match on for an attack on the already exhausted and lacking FARDC and wazalendo.There is no sensible military personnel who rubbishes any intelligence information,even if it may be false it should not make the army reluctant but keeps it alert.M23 does not rubbish any information ,instead does its analysis and establishes why.Wrong information or exaggerated can be a very good building block to establishing the reality.

These are reports from Commanders:

THE LOSS OF THE VILLAGE OF MIRIKI and KAMIKA BEFORE KANYABAYONGA: It all started on Thursday, with the loss of the village of Miriki. The FARDC had received information about an imminent attack by the ADF in Lubero which was to cause more than 150 deaths. The only FARDC units available in this region were in forward positions.  The unit on site has been divided into two groups. While the second group withdrew to protect the population, M23 attacked the village. We then understood that there were no ADFs, which suggests that they work together (ADF = RDF). .According to my sources, the RDF had strengthened their positions by adding more than 4,000 M23 soldiers. During this time, General Chico requested reinforcements from the general staff, the reinforcement had not yet arrived and a position in Kanyabayonga held by our Wazalendo brothers was attacked. During the fighting, one General Wazalendo (some say he has links to Geadeon and Jules Mulumba) was killed by an RDF sniper. The panic caused by the death of their leader led the Wazalendos to abandon their positions. The M23 took advantage of this opening to advance quickly. The FARDC found themselves trapped. The majority of our special forces, made up of our children and brothers, were in a weak position. They either had to fight and this could cause a lot of losses on our side, or withdraw, the weather did not allow us to have airforce support.The FARDC airforce would have come in for support but the weather was not good for the aerial equipments.General Chico, who no longer had any choices, ordered General Kabund to withdraw to preserve the lives of our soldiers, and this was done quickly. This is how the commune fell.The FARDC are now 20 km from the city. Before long, the FARDC will reorganize for a counter-offensive.

There are also rumors going on this morning 29/06/2024 that M23 and ADF-NALU would have entered pact as M23 eyes to establish itself in the territory of Lubero,however , accordingly,the intelligences sources and our close confidants ,these are taken as unreliable claims by some local inhabitants.

After a fortnight of massive reinforcements,M23 matches and matches into Kanyabayonga

 

If you read our post today ,the taking over Kanyabayonga by M23 cannot be a surprise to you.With articulate intelligence backed  packets of information we always have been able to accurately forecast some of the most prevailing security situations in the region And having all sources about the security situations in DRC we had already known that M23 was at all cost going to capture kanyabayonga.It was finally around 5 p.m. that the M23 rebels arrived in the city of Kanyabayonga after 1 month of a tough battle where the FARDC inflicted heavy losses on them. Testimonies on site say they recognize the bravery shown by the FARDC during 30 days of fighting. “Today the city of Kanyabayonga has fallen, we become displaced in our own country, but we must recognize that the FARDC did what was necessary for 30 days to contain the rebel attacks every day and protect. I think I will return to my town of Kanyabayonga very soon after the reorganization of the FARDC,” testified a resident. “I confirm to you that in the ranks of the FARDC there are still brave soldiers who are fighting and brave Commanders in this case the Northern Front Command who still have concern for this country and its future. Yes, today Rwanda occupies our land but it will not be able to transport this land to its home, our army and the volunteers will surely organize themselves and one good morning we will return” explained this resident teacher of his state who fled with his household materials and teaching manuals.

FULL REPORT FROM THE FRONTLINE: Intensification of fighting in Rutshuru

 Intensification of fighting in Rutshuru, the M23 have since Thursday occupied Miriki and Kimaka , two new localities located about ten kilometers from Kanyabayonga after violent fighting between the FARDC and the M23 /RDF, report several local sources. Following this situation, a new massive movement of the population fleeing  was observed in the area towards villages deemed secure. However, the rural commune of Kanyabayonga remains under the control of the FARDC, our sources added.

An attack opposing the young Wazalendo resistance fighters by the M23/RDF rebels broke out the morning of Thursday, June 27, in the village of Remeka in the territory of Masisi chiefdom of Bahunde. Local sources say 5 finalists were injured in the state exam center. Local sources say that 12 M23/RDF elements were killed and 3 young wazalendo resistance fighters. The bodies of the M23 elements were taken to the village of Kasake.

A resident of the village targeted by the M23 confides that these rebels burst into the village of Remeka to recover several cows which were stolen by a young man from the Wazalendo group 5 days ago. During the exchange of fire, civilians were injured, including finalist students taking a state exam.

“It all started with a theft of cows on Friday last week in an area occupied by the M23, they came to free these cows but they were attacked by the Wazalendo of the Mai Mai Kifuafua group who are in the village of Remeka . The position of the wazalendo installed in the village was set on fire by the M23. 12 M23 elements were killed and 3 young people wazalendo. As I speak to you, the rebels have just withdrawn from this village which has once again come under the control of wazalendo. 5 finalist students were injured, they were quickly taken to Katunda hospital but as we feared that the rebels would arrive there, the injured were evacuated to the village of Biriko,” explains a school Administrator from the center where students took exams.

Violent fighting has intensified since the morning of Friday June 28 between the Congolese army against the M23/RDF rebels around Kanyabayonga, in Lubero territory in the province of North Kivu according to local sources. Detonations of heavy and light weapons have been heard in the area since the morning. Some local sources claim that the rebels took control of the locality of Kamaka in the territory of Lubero and the village of Miriki.

Other sources indicate that m23 has made massive reinforcements both in human and other logistics and heavy attack is expected this weekend.The m23 vow to retake Kanyabayonga whic they see as a key for the easy taking of the territory of Lubero and  provision of good cemented attacks on Walikale.M23 have vowed not to back down however much casualities they have gotten from the recent front encounters.

Former Speaker of Somalia Parliament Mohamed Osman Jawaari has passed away in Mogadishu

  Former Speaker of Somalia Parliament Mohamed Osman Jawaari has passed away in Mogadishu, Friday; he was 79, sources.

Jawaari held multiple positions in Siyaad Barre’s government including serving as minister of transport, labour and social affairs. 

Before becoming a speaker, Jawaari who graduated from Somalia’s faculty of law was the chair of the constitutional experts committee which oversaw the drafting of the current constitution. 

Jawaari was elected a speaker in August 2012; and again was re-elected in January 2017. He resigned in April 2018 after pressure from the government of  Farmaajo

.

Somalia’s National Security Advisor, Hussein Sheikh Ali, has unequivocally stated that the Federal Government of Somalia (FGS) is not engaged in negotiations with the militant group Al-Shabaab.

 

This declaration comes in response to unverified social media reports suggesting that “secret” talks were underway with the terrorist organization.

“FGS is not in talks with al-Shabab (Al-Khawarij). The President has put forward clear conditions on this eventuality: They must sever any link with global terror groups and accept Somalia’s territorial integrity. They must be willing to pursue their political agenda peacefully,” Hussein Sheikh Ali asserted in a post on his official X account.

The President’s stance, sources say, outlines stringent prerequisites that Al-Shabaab must meet before any dialogue can be considered. These conditions are aimed at ensuring that the group renounces violence and aligns with the broader goals of national unity and peace.

The statement serves as a direct rebuttal to circulating rumors, reinforcing the government’s commitment to a transparent and uncompromising approach to national security. By setting these clear conditions, the Somali government reaffirms its position against engaging with terrorist groups without significant concessions and assurances.

The reaffirmation of this policy underscores the government’s broader strategy to combat terrorism and maintain stability within the country.

The National Security Advisor’s declaration is expected to quell speculations and reinforce the government’s firm position on countering terrorism while promoting a peaceful political process. The administration’s clear conditions for any potential talks with Al-Shabaab highlight the uncompromising nature of its strategy to ensure lasting peace and security in Somalia.

The alshabaab also reported that,If talks happen, AlShabaab intends to engage only with international partners, not the Somali government. Sources around the Al-Shabaab network suggest  Alshabaab  will soon release a statement clarifying their perspective on this matter.

Russia's unknown and speculated space based nuclear weapon

 Putin has launched an expanded campaign to fight the West.

The main known unknown, publicly at least, is whether this is a space-based nuclear weapon in the most conventional sense of the term — nuclear warheads, atomic reactions, mushroom clouds. Or if, as many experts suspect, this is a nuclear-powered satellite carrying electronic weapons, which could cause havoc on Earth by crippling satellites that drive everything from weather forecasting and phone calls to wars and the global economy.

If it is the former — actual space nukes — that would be a violation of the United Nations’ Outer Space Treaty of 1967. One of its clauses says that countries are not allowed to “place nuclear weapons or other weapons of mass destruction in orbit, or on celestial bodies, or station them in outer space in any other manner.”

One of the reasons this treaty was signed is the same reason that stationing nuclear weapons in orbit would be so dangerous: a country could loose a nuclear bomb from the heavens with very little warning. The sources said the Russian technology in question is designed to target American satellites, something experts say Russia — and other nuclear-armed powers — is more than capable of doing using intercontinental ballistic missiles, or ICBMs, launched from the ground.

Nevertheless, actually deploying nuclear weapons in orbit “would be a new escalatory step by the Russian Federation, which has already trashed a lot of arms control treaties,” said Mariana Budjeryn, a senior research associate at the Project on Managing the Atom, part of the Harvard Kennedy School. “This would be putting a nuclear weapon in space — where there have been none before.”

Other experts, reading between the lines of the reports, believe that this weapons system would be nuclear-powered rather than nuclear-armed. There has also been speculation that this is all linked to a classified Russian satellite, named Cosmos 2575, launched last week.

2 dead ,20 injured in an M23 mortar attack on sake

 The South African National Defense Force (SANDF), confirms the mortar attack on one of our bases in Sake, in the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), on June 25, 2024, which caused two dead and twenty injured. Four seriously injured members were hospitalized, while the others, with minor injuries, are expected to be released soon. The families of the two members who lost their lives have been informed and all necessary procedures to bring them their mortal remains are being processed. The names of the deceased will be communicated in due course.

DRC's prime Minister to visit Goma on Wednesday

 

Prime Minister Judith Suminwa is expected to go to North Kivu on Wednesday for an official visit, reports a source close to the prime minister. Some Congolese believe that his visit to North Kivu will be "significant" during this period when killings of civilians are increasing in Beni following ADF activism and the intensification of fighting between the Congolese army and the M23 / RDF in Rutshuru and Masisi. This visit will be her first outing inside the country since her appointment as Prime Minister of the DRC. During her inauguration on June 12, Mrs. Suminwa placed security as the second pillar of government action.

M23 attempted simultaneous attacks Repelled by FARDC

 

After M23 spending the whole weekend enmassing reinforcements, Fardc repelled simultaneous attacks by M23 rebels in PP, Bushikwa, Kimaka and Kateku who were seeking to force their way into Kanyabayonga. M23 rebels supported by Rwanda continue to unsuccessfully attempt to enter Kanyabayonga. All the attempts and maneuvers of the M23_RDF on this axis fail to break the determination of the Armed Forces of the Democratic Republic of Congo to defend the city of Kanyabayonga.

The M60 Patton VS the T14 Armata

 

The M60 Patton is a renowned American main battle tank that served prominently during the Cold War era and beyond. Named after General George S. Patton, it was designed to succeed the M48 Patton series and featured significant upgrades in firepower and armor protection. The M60's primary armament is a 105mm rifled gun, complemented by sturdy armor and a reliable diesel engine, providing it with solid combat capabilities. While it has been largely replaced by more modern tanks like the M1 Abrams in U.S. service, the M60 Patton remains in use with various armed forces worldwide, reflecting its enduring reputation for durability and firepower.

The T-14 Armata is an advanced Russian main battle tank introduced in recent years, representing a significant leap in armored vehicle technology. It features a revolutionary unmanned turret with an automatic loader, enhancing crew safety and operational efficiency. The tank is equipped with a 125mm smoothbore gun and advanced composite armor, offering superior protection and firepower. The T-14 Armata also incorporates cutting-edge sensors, active protection systems, and digital networking capabilities, making it one of the most technologically advanced tanks in the world. Its introduction marks a new era in armored warfare, showcasing Russia's commitment to modernizing its military capabilities.

SATAN 2:The world's biggest missile

 The RS-28 Sarmat, known by its NATO reporting name "Satan 2," is a powerful intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) developed by Russia. It is designed to replace the aging Soviet-era R-36M missiles, also known as the "SS-18 Satan." The Sarmat is intended to be a cornerstone of Russia's nuclear deterrence strategy, capable of delivering multiple warheads and penetrating advanced missile defense systems.

Key features of the RS-28 Sarmat include its immense payload capacity and range, allowing it to strike targets across continents with high precision. Its development represents Russia's efforts to modernize its strategic missile forces and maintain a credible nuclear deterrent in the face of evolving global security challenges.

Discussions about the RS-28 Sarmat often focus on its technical specifications, strategic implications, and its role in international arms control agreements, given its significant capabilities in nuclear warfare.

The Sarmat intercontinental ballistic missile blasts off during a test launch.

The RS-28 Sarmat intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) of Russia, commonly known as "Satan II" in Western media and once described as invincible by President Vladimir Putin, was deployed for combat duty, the head of the state space agency Roscosmos once announcemed"The Sarmat strategic missile system has entered active duty," Roscosmos chief Yuri Borisov said in 2023. "The RS-28 Sarmat is Russia's next-generation intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) that is set to become the backbone of the country's silo-based strategic deterrent. With its impressive range and destructive power, the Sarmat is considered one of the deadliest nuclear missiles in the world.As per the Moscow Times, the RS-28 Sarmat dubbed Satan 2 by Western analysts, is among Russia's next-generation missiles unveiled by Putin in 2018, which also include the Kinzhal and Avangard hypersonic missiles.Weighing in at more than 200 tonnes and able to transport multiple warheads, Sarmat is designed to elude anti-missile defence systems with a short initial boost phase, giving enemy surveillance systems a narrow window to track it down.Russian defence committee deputy chairman Aleksey Zhuravlyov used it as a threat when he was interviewed by state broadcaster TV Russia 1 in May regarding Sweden and Finland's aspirations towards joining NATO in light of Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Finland joined the alliance earlier in 2023, while Sweden was still waiting to be ratified. Mr Zhuravlyov claimed that Moscow could unleash Satan II to strike back at those nations and at the UK and US, which the Putin regime regards as the key organising forces behind Nato.

Why the  name 'Satan II'?

The Sputnik News reported that while NATO designates the Sarmat missile as the 'SS-X-29' or 'SS-X-30', Western media has often referred to it as 'Satan II'. This name is derived from the NATO reporting name 'SS-18 Satan', which was used for the R-36M missile system that the Sarmat is set to replace. The 'Satan II' moniker plays on the terrifying associations of evil and suffering, capturing the attention of the media and the public.

FARDC recovers more territory.

After the recovery of several villages in the territories of Masisi and Rutsuru, the Congolese FARDC army attacks the mining town of #Rubaya in the territory of Masisi. Violent clashes were reported this Saturday, June 22, between the Congolese army and the #M23_RDF_AFC coalition. Military sources say that the FARDC advanced towards the mining town of Rubaya, a mining town located in the Bahunde chiefdom in Masisi territory, in North Kivu in the east of the DRC. This city came under the control of the coalition between February and March last year. “The detonations of heavy and light weapons were heard at 5 a.m. this Saturday in the village of Kibabi Buporo, not far from the Mululu River about 7 kilometers from the center of Rubaya. Now, a precarious calm is observed in the area and the FARDC spend the night 7 km from Rubaya", explains Shemati Éric. Civil society, however, denounces the fact that the coalition M23_RDF_AFC launches bombs targeting civilian objectives every time "Since Monday, 24 bombs have fallen in the Kanyabayonga commune, causing 19 injuries including 4 children and 14 deaths," said Aimé Mukanda, notable in the Rutshuru territory.

Was Willy Ngoma injured in any ambush?

 There has been a rumour going on that the military spokesperson of m23,Lt Colonel Willy Ngoma may have been seriously injured in one of the offensives in Kanyabayonga.some of the key figures in M23 have been said to have fallen in ambushes led by wazalendo in the outskirts of kanyabayonga.The wazalendo and their allies claim that since a one called Kayizari was killed or injured plus the spokes person Lt Col Willy Ngoma who is too said to be nursing heavy wounds.Some others claim that since Willy Ngoma has spent some days without surfacing in the media,this may partly be  A a proof that he was injured in one of the offensives in Rutshuru.However this cannot merely proove that Willy Ngoma was injured,it is not even the first time that he was even declared to have been killed,he probabbly may be on leave or meeting with his seniors for thorough study of any counter offensive mechanism.Recently some key figures who are believed to be allies of M23 have been targetded and eliminated by Wazalendo.Recently a one in names of Nsabimana born in Kagenda ,a known owner of herds of cattle was ambushed and killed .Wazalendo had always blamed him for being a funder ,recruiter and actively involved in coercing plus  deploying the youth from jomba in the ranks of M23.News has reached us that M23 ordered that this Nsabimana who is said to be a son to a man called Mungwete be buried in Ruginga specifically in a place called" Kumiti ya Camarade" close to an M23 post .
