HEZBOLLAH ATTACKS ISRAELI NAVAL BASE

 

 Lebanon’s Hezbollah movement announced on Sunday that it had carried out its first drone attack on an Israeli naval base, located 150 kilometers (93 miles) from the border with Lebanon. 

 "Fighters of the Islamic resistance movement [Hezbollah] attacked [the Israeli] naval base in Ashdod, located 150 kilometers away from the Lebanese-Palestinian border, using unmanned aerial vehicles," the statement read. It added that all targets were destroyed. 

 However, the IDF has not confirmed the attack. "No sirens warning of a drone sounded at that time, neither near the Lebanon border nor near Ashdod, and the military says it is unaware of the claims,"

Alshabaab intensifies use of drones

 AlShabaab has reportedly intensified its focus on drone warfare, transitioning from surveillance to potentially more offensive operations, according to a 171-page report presented to the United Nations Security Council by the Panel of Experts on Somalia.

Experts advise the African Union to stay vigilant during the transition from ATMISS to AUSSOM and call on member states to improve Somalia's maritime security by enhancing offshore patrol capabilities and building coast guard infrastructure to address piracy and maritime crime.

FARDC-UPDF coalition clash with ADF at Kainama

 According to Intelligence sources,Elements of the FARDC-UPDF coalition foiled an attack by ADF rebels this Thursday, November 21, 2024 in the Banande-kainama group, Beni territory in North Kivu.

The attackers who had just led the incursion into the village of Kingamubhiri, saw their progress stopped by the aforementioned coalition which intervened urgently.

However, there was general paralysis of activities following the detonations of heavy and light weapons.

Information I have got now asserts:

"The ADF attacked Kingamubhiri, in Kainama, in broad daylight. The FARDC-UPDF coalition intervened to stop their maneuver. Following the detonations of heavy and light weapons, the inhabitants moved. Many went to concentrate in the position of the security elements for their protection," said Jonas Kasumba, president of the civil society of the Banande-kainama group.

Some confidant official sources, including village chiefs, have confirmed the news. However, they have limited themselves to confirming the facts.

It should be noted that this attack comes a few days after two others on the Eringeti-Kainama road axis, particularly in Bango, where one person died alongside several burnt properties including a car and several motorcycles.

The second attack took place last Wednesday. The toll was one civilian killed, another injured, a car set on fire and a few civilians missing.

Alshaabab claims restablished presence in area between Births Sheet and Kismayo.

 

According to OSINT reports from Somalia,Alshaabab claims to be active once again in the area between Birta Dheer and Kismayo, within a 50 km stretch. The group's media wing released a video documenting an ambush against Jubaland (JL) forces stationed there, who were supported by NISA Gaashaan units. 16 soldiers were KIA and seems that Alshaabab is no longer taking prisoners, in contrast to the three videos released prior to this one. Unfortunately, Puntland's decision to execute Alshabaab prisoners appears to have prompted the militants to adopt back to policy of not sparing captured soldiers.

Watch the videos below:

Security situation in Eastern DRC at the center of discussions at SADC summit.

  

 President Félix Tshisekedi participated this Wednesday in the Extraordinary Summit of SADC Heads of State and Government in Harare, Zimbabwe. The security situation in eastern DRC was at the heart of the discussions.  The leaders assessed the commitment of the SADC Mission in the DRC (SAMIDRC) alongside the Congolese army in defending the country's territorial integrity in the face of Rwanda's aggression via the M23 terrorist group according to reports from the DRC presidency.

 The SADC regional military mission in the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo (SAMIDRC) has just been extended by one year. This decision was taken during a SADC summit

Will SAKE and GOMA survive this weekend?

The civil society of the Kamuronza group alerts national and international opinion to a significant strengthening of the positions of the M23-RDF rebels in the territory of Masisi, province of North Kivu. In a series of investigative and intelligence research shows that the M23 made significant reinforcement in both arms,men and supplies and they are more determined to take over and cement their presence in Sake.According to HUMINT and OSINT sources from Bunagana up to Masisi,they are crude facts that puts M23 at high chance of taking SAKE town, some of these sources indicated that several dozen trucks carrying men and war materials have been seen in recent days in the localities of Mushaki, Karuba, Bihambwe and along the axis leading to the center of Masisi.  

One source confirmed that!

“It’s no longer a secret. These enemy forces are massively deployed on the hills overlooking the localities of Sake, Shasha and Bweremana,” specifies the residence of the Kamuronza group, worried about the potential consequences of this deployment.According to Intelligence information from within the ranks of M23 ,there no fear,thorough plans are being laid for this operation and the supplies in all ways have been prucured and prepared.  

Information from FARDC also indicates that there is no panick,but to several civilians both outside and inside DRC,they still do fully trust their army whom they blame for simply leaving M23 to easily capture areas.They say that ,if it was not Wazlendo,the whole of North kivu would have been taken.And one civilian bitterly blames the administration of paying them Meagre which he termed in local language as "kubaha Urusenda"

Faced with this worrying situation, an appeal is launched to the Armed Forces of the Democratic Republic of Congo (FARDC) as well as to the Wazalendo resistance fighters to redouble their vigilance and avoid any surprise effect. Civil society insists on the urgency of a strategic response in order to prevent a possible advance by the rebels in this region already affected by insecurity.  

Will Kampala manage to convince Tshisekedi to talk with M23

 

The Congolese parliamentary mission to Kampala ended on Monday, November 18. The deputies who took part in this 7-day mission submitted their report on Tuesday, November 19 to the President of the National Assembly, Vital Kamerhe. According to them, this mission was fruitful.

Diplomatic relations between Uganda and the DRC are eminently strategic given the extent of the border that the two countries share, explained Lambert Mende Omalanga who led the Congolese delegation.

At the end of this mission, the President of the Ugandan Parliament, Anita Annet Among, announced, via the Congolese delegation, to her counterpart Vital Kamerhe, that she will in the coming days lead a mission to Kinshasa to follow up on the discussions initiated with the Congolese parliamentary mission that she received in Kampala.

The delegation of Congolese national elected officials also spoke with Ugandan President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni, who said he was very satisfied with this bridge established between the Parliaments of the two countries.

Led by National Deputy Lambert Mende Omalanga, this mission aimed to discuss with Ugandan political authorities and the DRC-Uganda friendship group on strengthening constructive diplomacy for peace between these two African nations.

Rival Wazlendo factions clash as they face more challenges of Meagre and limited payments from DRC gorvenment.

 

The Wazalendo FAR-W movement denounced an attack on its position at Kanyangoma by the MPA/AP movement on Tuesday, November 19. In a statement, the FAR-W described the incident as "yet another provocation" that "presents a bad image with regard to the mission entrusted to us." 

 On a working mission to Goma in the East of the Democratic Republic of Congo, 5 elected national deputies from North Kivu spoke with the Military Governor of North Kivu, Major General Peter Cirimwami about the security, socio-economic situation and the development of the province.

After a visit to some construction sites in the city of Goma and its surroundings with the governor, these elected officials from North Kivu revealed that regarding the management of patriotic fighters known as wazalendo who are fighting against Rwandan aggressors, Kinshasa only sends 300,000 USD per month to support nearly 60,000 wazalendo and unfortunately for nearly 4 months, this support has not arrived.

"We will shortly contact the Deputy Prime Minister in charge of defense for the problem of resources for the care of the wazalendo, then we will call the chief of staff of the Prime Minister Judith Suminwa for the problem of retrocession, the province of North Kivu needs it," said national deputy Patrick Munyomo.

According to figures provided by the elected national deputy of Masisi Justin Ndayishimiye, with an allocation of 300,000 USD per month sent by Kinshasa, each muzalendo element receives a minimum of 5 US dollars monthly.

"This sum is very small, let Kinshasa do something for those who are fighting for the nation against the Rwandan aggressors and their allies. Imagine 5 dollars a month for a muzalendo and his family, it represents absolutely nothing," he said.

5 elected national deputies from North Kivu are on a mission to Goma sent by the President of the National Assembly Vital Kamerhe. Several questions concerning the life of the province were discussed by these elected national representatives with the military governor of North Kivu.
