This command and control mission allowed him to gain a firsthand understanding of the security and operational realities on the ground where soldiers are engaged against the M23.
The Burundi National Police Inspectorate, through the General Migration Commission based at Bujumbura Airport (Airport Commission), has refused entry to seven Congolese nationals from the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo. Machumu Mushayuma , Mambo Inakazirwa Tyty, Ntumba Kateta Sylvain, Bwemere Mungwete Josué, Rhubane Buhinda Jean-Bosco, Kulimushi Buhandja Guillain, Kulondwa Byenda Jean-Claude, and Bruppacher Mambo Marcw were refused entry to Burundi on the grounds that their travel documents bore exit stamps issued by illegitimate Congolese authorities. The Burundian authorities based this decision on the provisions of Article 5 of Decree-Law No. 1/25 of November 25, 2021, regulating migration in Burundi. Shortly before, such a measure had already been taken against Burundian nationals, most of them traders and heavy truck drivers, who came from eastern DRC and admitted to having crossed into areas controlled by the AFC/M23 rebel coalition. Some, after having their passports stolen, were detained by immigration authorities, and others were turned back.
Several analysts have described these measures as violating international law regarding the freedom of movement of people and their goods. "What does the population have to do with what happened to them while under rebel occupation? Did they want it for such measures to be imposed on them?" asks Mr. Maxime Kaboyi.
On the other hand, a resident of the city of Bukavu denounces the treatment meted out at border posts by Congolese and Burundian migration services to Congolese nationals leaving areas under the control of the AFC/M23 rebels.
"Whether we're traveling to Kinshasa or Kalemie from Goma or Bukavu, we're treated as if we're not Congolese. In such cases, we're forced to leave Goma or Bukavu for Kigali, and from there, take a flight either to Kinshasa on Ethiopian Airlines or to Bujumbura. But once we arrive at our destination, we're subjected to very stressful treatment, as if we were no longer Congolese citizens with the right to travel." Who should then be looking at our travel documents when we have been abandoned by our government, which has so far been unable to free us from the hands of the occupiers?' exclaimed Mr. Espoir Balezi Muhemeri, who recounted his journey to Kinshasa to RNA-NEWS.
The Burundian government, which has engaged in military cooperation with the DRC since 2023, considers the AFC/M23 coalition an enemy group. After pushing back Burundian and Congolese forces from several areas of North and South Kivu, notably Goma and Bukavu in January and February 2025, the latter has expanded its control over immigration services, now exercised in several border towns under its authority.
I was alerted at 3:00 a.m. that there had been three explosions in LUHWINDJA, and promised to get back t with details in the morning.
This morning, the population of LUHWINDJA, specifically in NDOLA, woke up to find the remains of a completely destroyed military drone.
Confusion remains regarding the destruction of this drone, whose origin and perpetrators are unknown.
We continue to believe that as time progresses, we will receive more details about this event.
Note that Luhwinja is still under the control of the M23-AFC rebels.
UPDF must be made aware fo this information running all over social media in DRC.
There is claim going as:Mistaken for FPRI militiamen, the Ugandan army (UPDF) opened fire on the Congolese naval force patrolling on Lake Albert (Djugu). There were deaths and injuries on the Congolese side, which were brought back by the UPDF along with military equipment to Uganda.
According to initial reports, this tragic incident caused several deaths and injuries among the Congolese forces. The surviving soldiers, along with their equipment, were reportedly recovered by UPDF elements and then transferred to Uganda for questioning this Wednesday.
A joint investigation is expected to shed light on this serious act, which risks reigniting tensions in this sensitive area.
We call upon the UPDF to be aware of this and probably clear some air over it.
His Excellency Mwalimu Vital Kamerhe Nkingi, Speaker of the National Assembly of the DRC, met with Ugandan President YOWERI KAGUTA MUSEVENI M7 at State House in Entebbe.
With him, President Vital KAMERHE delivered a special message from His Excellency President Félix Antoine Tshisekedi, focusing on the security situation in the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC).
According to intelligence collections from DRC media and critics of president Tshisekedi,they are lamenting:"Knowing that Vital KAMERHE is one of the few individuals in the current Congolese political class who has a strong grasp of this issue, we hope that the Ugandan President will not be able to fool us".
A major breakthrough has emerged in the ongoing investigation into the assassination of Kasipul Member of Parliament, Charles Ong’ondo Were, who was brutally gunned down on April 30, 2025.
Interior Principal Secretary Dr. Raymond Omollo confirmed that key suspects have been identified, with the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) narrowing in on those believed to have executed the hit. Among the suspects arrested is a high-profile Rwandan Tutsi operative, David Mihigo Kagame — a well-known figure linked to Kigali’s intelligence apparatus and suspected of orchestrating covert operations across East Africa.
His arrest has shocked security experts and lawmakers alike, revealing the existence of a Nairobi-based Rwandan spy and death squad network that had remained hidden in plain sight.
According to security sources, David Mihigo Kagame leads a covert Rwandan Tutsi spy cell operating primarily out of Ngumba Estate in Kasarani, Nairobi. The cell is believed to consist of between 2,000 to 3,000 Rwandan intelligence agents — many of them women "honey traps" — embedded in strategic areas including Nairobi, Mombasa, and Nakuru.
Their mission: to infiltrate Kenyan government structures, influence Members of Parliament, county officials, and particularly to manipulate corrupt elements within Kenya’s police and security sectors. These operatives reportedly arrived in waves, many traveling on the now-infamous "Trinity" bus line, which has frequently been seen ferrying young Tutsi men into Kenya under the guise of seeking refuge or employment. This bus is operated by the Rwandan intelligence department.
Alarmingly, Claims and. Other other anti Kagame intelligence suggests that these men are later transported to the Democratic Republic of Congo to join the M23 rebel movement — a group long supported by Kigali.
Governor Gladys Wanga, speaking emotionally during MP Ong’ondo Were’s funeral, accused unnamed government actors of deliberately attempting to suppress the truth. “The disinformation flooding social media is no accident. It is funded, coordinated, and intended to conceal the truth about who killed Were,” she said.
Her comments point to a disturbing cover-up, as well as growing concerns about Rwanda’s silent influence on Kenyan soil. The involvement of David Mihigo Kagame — whose name has surfaced repeatedly in intelligence circles — offers chilling insight into the scale of foreign interference.
David Mihigo Kagame's cell, which recently relocated to Kenya after being flushed out of Tanzania by security crackdowns, appears to be operating freely and with little resistance from Kenyan authorities. This raises troubling questions about our national security, the safety of elected officials, and the willingness of the Kenyan state to confront foreign threats that are now operating within its border.
