M23 rebels in DRC vow to "march to Kinshasa"

ai generated text

The situation in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) is escalating, with the Rwanda-backed rebel group M23 making significant gains in the eastern part of the country. The M23 has recently captured the provincial capital of Goma, and is now advancing towards the city of Bukavu. The UN has accused Rwanda of providing thousands of soldiers to support the M23, which has led to international calls for restraint.
