The United Nations Security Council has issued a resolution urging Rwanda to withdraw its support for the M23 rebel group in the Democratic Republic of Congo, where they have gained significant territory. The resolution condemns the offensive actions of the M23, which have been alleged to be supported by around 4,000 Rwandan soldiers. With mounting tensions, the conflict has caused over 50,000 people to flee to neighboring countries. Despite these claims, Rwanda denies involvement with the rebels, complicating the diplomatic landscape.
The UN Security Council unanimously adopted a resolution condemning the ongoing offensive of the M23 rebel group in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo, calling for Rwanda to withdraw support and troops.
Rwanda, however, denies the allegations that it supports the M23 rebels with armed troops, despite the UN report of approximately 4,000 Rwandan soldiers present in Congo.
