Congo Rebels Accuse Government of Undermining Peace Efforts

Congo Rebels Accuse Government of Undermining Peace Efforts

In the Democratic Republic of Congo, there is a group of rebels called the Congo River Alliance, which includes the M23 group.

They are accusing the government of not following the rules they agreed to for peace.

These rules were made in a meeting led by Qatar, with the goal of stopping the fighting in the east of the country.

The rebels say the government and its allies are attacking, which breaks the agreement.

They are asking for help from Qatar, the African Union, and the United Nations to make the government keep its promises.

The President of Congo, Felix Tshisekedi, has said he will only talk with Congolese who want to fix their country and end the crisis.
