Rwandan troops reportedly cross into DRC to support M23 rebels near Goma

Rwandan troops are reportedly crossing into the Democratic Republic of the Congo to support the M23 rebels in their attempt to capture the city of Goma. This buildup comes ahead of an emergency UN meeting scheduled for Monday. Intelligence sources indicate that Rwandan forces have amassed near Goma, with fierce clashes occurring between M23 and Congolese troops. The situation has escalated, with Goma's defenses under significant pressure. Previously, up to 4,000 Rwandan soldiers were estimated to be operating in the DRC. The M23 has gained ground recently, capturing key towns and threatening supply routes to Goma, which is facing shortages of food and basic supplies.
