Show Notes
Eastern Democratic Republic of Congo sees escalating conflict, with record-breaking drone and air strikes near key mining areas. The Congolese army recently targeted M23 positions, including a strike that killed their spokesperson. Rwanda faces accusations of supporting M23, leading to US sanctions. The US is now hosting talks between Congo and Rwanda, as global demand for minerals draws in more international players, complicating local peace efforts and tying Congos future to big powers choices.
