Rwanda-backed M23 Rebel Capture DR Congo’s Largest City Goma
M23 rebels have captured Goma, a key city in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), after heavy fighting with the Congolese army. Thousands of residents have fled as the takeover sparked chaos, looting, and a worsening humanitarian crisis. The UN has called for M23 to withdraw and end the violence. Since 2021, M23 rebels have seized large areas of eastern DR Congo, a region rich in minerals. The UN reports that since early 2025, over 400,000 people have fled their homes in North and South Kivu, near the Rwandan border.
