Congolese M23 rebels are seen as they withdraw from the 3 antennes location in Kibumba, near Goma, North Kivu Province of the Democratic Republic of Congo on December 23, 2022.
The M23 has announced a ceasefire from February 4, citing “humanitarian reasons”.
In a press release, the rebel movement said the decision was taken in response to the humanitarian crisis caused by the war. Following unrest in the cities of Goma and Sake, the humanitarian situation has deteriorated sharply in eastern Congo.
