Clashes still going on!

 Clashes between the DRC Armed Forces (FARDC) and the M23 rebels, supported by Rwanda, are continuing this Friday, January 24 on two different fronts around the city of Goma (North Kivu), notably on the Kibumba axis, in the Nyiragongo territory, and on the Sake axis, in Masisi.

According to some sources, the Congolese army and its allies are trying to push back the rebels who are in the city of Sake and to counter their advance towards the Kibumba area.

Since 8 a.m. local time, witnesses claim to have heard detonations of heavy and light weapons, notably on the Sake axis, in Masisi territory and on the Kanyamahoro-Kibumba axis, in Nyiragongo territory. 

These detonations, which continue on this axis, are exacerbating panic in the city of Goma.

As for Sake, several sources indicate that the city, including the village of Mubambiro, was occupied by M23 rebels until Friday morning. 

According to these sources, the army and its allies are trying to counter the advance of these rebels towards Goma by passing through the Virunga National Park via the north of the Nzulo locality. 

On the other front, violent clashes are also continuing on the Kibumba axis where, since early Friday, the M23 has been attempting another breakthrough towards Goma. But they are being prevented from doing so by the Congolese army, report sources in the region.

The day before, the front line of the Sake axis was defended by the FARDC and allies including the Wazalendo, the SAMIDRC Regional Force and MONUSCO peacekeepers.

Since Thursday, January 23, MONUSCO has reactivated Operation Springbok, launched several months ago to protect the city of Goma, jointly with the FARDC.

Also on Thursday, detonations of heavy weapons were heard in this northern part of the Nyiragongo territory. A bomb dropped by the rebels fell in a village in the Muja group, causing the death of at least two civilians.

Military Attachés of their Countries in Rwanda were told Much about the Collaboration between FDLR and FARDC

Defence Attachés of their Countries in Embassies in Rwanda visited the Mutobo Center, which houses former combatants, and spoke with those who recently defected from the FDLR, who told them how this group works with the FARDC, as well as the Burundian army and the Wazalendo movement.

This was an event that took place on Wednesday, January 23, 2025, where the Defence Attachés visited the Mutobo Center, which houses former combatants before being reintegrated into civilian life.

This group of representatives of the interests of their countries' military in the embassies were welcomed by the Rwandan Defense Forces Spokesperson, Brig Gen Ronald Rwivanga, who told them that these fighters have chosen to distance themselves from the FDLR, due to the group's toxic nature.

The former fighters also explained in detail to the Defence Attachés the military cooperation between the FDLR, the Congolese army (FARDC), the Burundian army and the Wazalendo rebel group.

Those who decided to distance themselves from the armed groups said that these groups work with the Congolese army in the ongoing fighting, and are provided with equipment by the leaders of this country.

The Director of the Mutobo Center, Rtd Maj Mudayi Cyprien, spoke about the programs planned for these former combatants, which include a three-month period during which they are taught the values ​​and life of the country, as well as receiving vocational training that will enable them to live in the extended family they have joined.

This visit by representatives of the Armed Forces of their countries to their Embassies in Rwanda, was aimed at obtaining information on the issues of armed groups that continue to be discussed in the region where Rwanda is located.

Media claims:Will Tshisekedi soon attack Rwanda using FDLR?

 

Those who defected from the FDLR and returned to Rwanda have revealed the extent of Tshisekedi's plan to attack it

Those who defected from the FDLR and Wazalendo groups, which are collaborating with the Army of the Democratic Republic of Congo (FARDC) in the war against M23, say that in the battle instructions they receive, they are told to fight the group or they will continue to occupy Rwanda.

These fighters who escaped from these groups, including the FDLR, which is made up of survivors of the Genocide against the Tutsi, say that the poor living conditions and barbarity in these groups are what made them decide to separate from them and return to their homeland.

They say that the collaboration between the FARDC and these armed groups has reached a high level, to the point that when they were fighting the M23 group, they would be united, and otherwise they would be provided with equipment such as guns and government troops.

Returning to their shared activities in the ongoing war in eastern DRC, Ishimwe Patrick, a former FDLR fighter, said: “We fought in Kishish with the FARDC, we fought in Kibilizi with Mai-Mai, FARDC and FDLR, we went up to Kirundure with FARDC and Mai-Mai.”

The 24-year-old says that during these battles they were also with a white general named Gen Jean Marie who lives in Mugozi.

Tshisekedi’s plan to invade Rwanda

Niyitanga Gervais, 18, who also escaped from these groups working with the FARDC, says that he went to the Democratic Republic of Congo to seek safety but he and others who were with him found themselves captured by armed groups who then took them in.

This young man from Cyanzarwe Sector in Rubavu District, says that when they were captured by these groups, they were immediately taken to military training for two months in Ntiti, and then immediately sent to the battlefield in eastern DRC.

He said, “When we were going to fight, Gen Justin would give us instructions on how to behave on the battlefield, give us ammunition, whether it was a Machine Gun, RPG, or Mortier; and he would take it.”

In this battle, they seemed to be committing suicide, because those who tried to resist or were lazy, were shot, so that they fought in self-defense to save their lives, but that did not prevent the M23 group from defeating them even though they were armed with heavy weapons.

He said that in the instructions they received for this battle, they were told that they had to defeat the M23 group, that it was made up of Rwandans, and that they would continue the fight in Rwanda and conquer it.

He said, “We would go to the battlefield and they would tell us that we would attack Rwanda, and we would end up going to the battlefield and we would meet the FARDC, FDLR, and those Burundians. When we all went to the battlefield, they would mix us up, FARDC, Wazalendo, FDLR, we would all mix us up and fight together.”

This soldier said that the life he lived was miserable, because their leaders used them to commit inhuman acts, which was what made him decide to return home.

He said, “When we were in those forests, it was like walking past a woman with money and taking it from her, or like your General telling you, ‘I saw someone with money’ at night and you go and open the door and take it away, he wanted to scream and shoot him.”

Private Hatangimana Delphin, who left the Wazalendo group, also said that the instructions they received from their superiors were very focused on attacking Rwanda.

He said, “They told us that we must fight for our country Rwanda by fighting the M23, accusing them of being Rwandans and fighting them. After that, they told us that if we meet someone, we must steal what they have so that we can live, get soap and other things.”

All these fighters say that even though they are given powerful weapons, they never defeat the M23 because they only achieve one victory a month.

On different occasions, the President of the DRC, Felix Tshisekedi, has repeatedly stated that he intends to invade Rwanda to overthrow the current government, and this is one of the things that the government of this country assures the FDLR that it will help.

This is at a time when the President of the Republic of Rwanda, Paul Kagame, has promised Rwandans that he will no longer threaten their security, no matter what it is, no matter who is behind it and no matter where it comes from.

This promise has also come true, because in all these three years, not a single threat has threatened Rwanda's security, even though there are those who have these evil plans and have shown the will to implement them.
