There has been fighting in DRC ever since I was a child.... I'm now 36 they are still finding more reasons to fight
And genocides in the neighbouring Rwanda ... Land of killers.
Mostly fanned by foreign interests pegged on mineral resources for cheap at the expense of innocent citizens
western proxy wars
@@shaabandaud1173By your new master China
Europeans and USA
Goma is safe now stop lying
UN is blowing this out of proportion so they can get more funds & extend their Netflix membership 😮
WDM if anything they've done very little to help
last time there was a majot congo war millions died. This is very not blown out of proposition
Who is supplying these M23 rebels with arms?
Wallmart
@@klausthedog9670 😅😅
Thats very good question
@@leonardoz.wongbae9165 Rwandan soldiers
This Malcom Web is propagandist for the years I have listened to him!
Soooo much despair in the heart of Africa 😓
Why do you keep bringing the videos? You should focus with the current situations. am in Goma now water has been restored electricity as well
Is it under the rebels?
@@kelleraltidor4097yes
@@kelleraltidor4097 yes
there is delay from the infomastion getting to the media and the show made, then the show being aired on tv and then appearing on youtube. news videos on youtube are all ways a bit out of date
@@kelleraltidor4097 This person is in Rwanda. Don't believe everything people write on internet
Africa should be united against the greater threat of the west, rather than fighting one another
What about china and russia lol
@@gibson2675 Russia is a threat as well, but China's Belt and Road Initiative is interested in economic development, not warmongering
It's not the west that is corrupt and pressing the Tutsis in DRC it's the DRC black regime & for that reason they will be fought.
Cursed continent
The American government is using m23 to get the minerals from the Congo
Goma is Safe
M23 are Congolese who need peace dialogue for them to survive in their country in peace.they have been being hunted for 30 years.
M23 are RDF NOT CONGOLESE
They need to sit down and dialogue, and the UN should get out, we can sort ourselves out, no more foreign interference
They are not Congolese
They should go to Rwanda
Not even Rwanda send them to Somalia they are alishababa
Rwanda is this arrogant because they are backed up by the US and Israel.
China is King
Rwanda has nothing to do in DR Congo.
kagame this is not good... why do you kill innocent souls just because of minerals?
Discrimnation is aprice of many lives lost
True
even before Kagame was born 😮😮😮 there was a war in Congo
War in Congo started in 1996 and Kagame and meseveni they brought it
no brother 😔🥺 everything started crumbling in 1961 with the death of Patrice Lumumba.... and even before under the Belgian colonialism read well the history of Congo
The UN and the others should tell the Israeli to withdraw from Palestine.
You people deceive yourself so much.
💔
You don't know what you are talking about
The aid they threatened to cut is nothing compared to the minerals in the ground in that area
terrible news, very unprofessional, get on the ground and have real news on the situation you clowns!!!
I can now see why Aljazeera is banned even in Arab world.
Where are SA soldiers who died are they not decomposing
😅😅
@@jeffreymagongoe8883 What about 110 M23 rebels killed by SANDF
Jou ma se poes
@@ObengMbele-ho8ph What about them? I am asking about my fellow Combatants
Wakanda forever.
This is another middle east in Africa understanding who is fighting who is almost difficult... sielewi kitu
Water, electric, and internet have been restored 2 days ago. AJ is becoming like Western media full of bsht .
Malcom you're a dog because you report what you don't know.
I remember at one point the Congolese were chasing away foreign peacekeeping mission forces like Kenya. Wasn't that a mistake? Now they are trying. You cant demand when begging
Operation Kitona was a Rwandan/Ugandan offensive that marked the beginning of the Second Congo War led by retired general Kabarebe , Ugandan and Rwandan troops fought fierce battles in Kisangani over control of the Diamond rich territory. What more proof do you need. Why can’t they keep to themselves? They just love fighting don’t they. Tshisekedi should negotiate face to face with the Banyamulenge M23 to end this madness!!!!
You guys the way you report this article is very one side. I don't know if I can't understand you well saying that Rwanda and Uganda have been accused of meddling and looting minerals in DRC. And I wonder what the UN peace keeping mission has been doing in Congo among the army rebels in north Kivu ? The story is being flipped always
Stop your lies trying to justify an criminal activity in the DRC. M23 is simply RDF backed by NATO with the goal of stealing minerals.
Isn't it strange that the DRC has over 400 rebel groups, both local and foreign, many funded by the government? But it seems like only one group is blamed for the instability because they have outside support. If the government really wanted peace, wouldn’t they invest in the army and try to remove all the rebel groups instead of just focusing on one? What is happening is definitely 'mchezo wadani'! But since this has backfired on them, they are trying to drag in the international community while they stall and will use it to make the country more unstable for their personal gain. Some African countries are slow to understand how politics works
SADC and South Africa SANDF must stop fighting alongside FDLR genociders and European imperialist mercenaries who have now surrendered to the mighty M23 Congolese freedom fighters.
i dont think they ever fought along side the FDLR and I know they did not fight along side the mercs. They share a common enemy that does not mean they work together hand in hand.
@@Andrewza1 Well they do work hand in hand, one of fdlr leaders(Gen. Maj Pacigique who the president trusted more than his general as he gave him omega as a codename) even died trying to get revenge for a congolese general (Gen. Chirumwami who helped him establish contact with the congolese government) who had just died. So yeah, I'd say they work hand in hand.
Operation Kitona was a Rwandan/Ugandan offensive that marked the beginning of the Second Congo War led by retired General Kabarebe. M23 is RCD goma , RCD Goma is M23 backed by Rwandan forces and Ugandans.
OF COURSE 700 BURUNDIAN SOLDIERS
Tutsi power 💪
Father in the mighty name of your dear son Jesus Christ my Lord and savior please help those that are yours. You know and see what’s happening in the world and it’s not your will that any should perish at all but for those to come to repentance by Jesus through Jesus Christ only. Only Jesus can forgive sin by his blood only. Jesus is coming back soon repent turn to him he loves the world he gave himself for it please listen.
Savage dark Congo is a forgotten country why bother about this?
Is their anything new to report cause this the same news from day sgo
Again THIS MAINSTREAM MEDIA GOMA IS SAFE 💯-REFUGEES ARE RETURNING BACK HOME FROM NEIGHBOURING COUNTRY.
The Great war of Africa loading right now. The difference is the players. Am actually glad the EACRF is out, the KDF is not involved and South African soldiers will) have to step up
AJ has also been a biased news channel 😢😮. Things in Goma are stable now but you continue with your fake news
Not according to the left wing and indian press
We are asking all African countries to impose sanctions against Rwanda to compel Kagame to withdraw his murderers soldiers from DRC. We are also demanding that all those Western powers providing military, financial and logistic support to war in this part of Africa to with immediate effect cease doing so. We are aware these foreign criminals are only interested in African's mineral resources but nothing to do with humanitarian aid
Dear idiot rwanda is on another level than you think.before you say anything check economic growth of national and capacity of military equipment and others thinking's.
Kurdistan = Congolese Tutsistan. Kurds in the Middle East need their own country as the Congolese Tutsis need their own independent state because of I'll treatment, marginalization and, condemnation.
Reminds us of the DNC rallies in Chicago
Congo Amy flight for your land and your people a small country can't beat you
Rawanda gets more than the enter DRC miltary budget in western Aid money.
Only lies about Congo's rebels m23 😮😮 please do research before spreading rumours 😢😢 al jasella am so disappointed forsure
Malcom, please take more study of the situation. May be listen to what President Mbeki said on this conflict. You are oversimplifying the issue
Pliz give correct details its the pple who oppose Rwanda that loot minerals nd they are well known
You people you are useless when it comes to sharing news....who are those 700 people..are citizens? Or m23 rebels? Or soldiers?
Why do you keep saying "Rwandan-Backed"? They told you that Al Jazeera??
Ok. Western backed. You happy now?
😂@@kelleraltidor4097
The American government is using m23 through Rwanda to get the minerals from the Congo
People of Africa, how does killing each other help the route to lasting peace? The Christian Church since Ethiopia, where is the fruit that last from the Gospel of Peace?
What does Ethiopia have to do with congo
Come and take your brothers back to Ethiopia
Tutsis are Ethiopians who seek to dominate Bantu tribes in Great Lakes region
The problem is the useless borders that the Europeans had drawn up
@@shafsteryellow I pray to indicate that the Christian Church in Africa has historic roots and had lots of time to grow and stand for RIGHTEOUSNESS, even in the DR Congo!
@@anderson2718 Why can the AU not address it? Because those artificial borders are bought and paid for by perpetual money in the pockets of African leaders?
You should shut up if you don’t have information
I love you ! You have good sound
But you are lie non any 700 hundred die this is lie go see Goma people are happy now they can sleep without any problems
Why is this TH-cam channel referring to the congolese army as "pro government forces"?
Its the Rwandan army not the Rwandan backed M23. Get that finally straight.
Stop Kinshasa's propagandas
@Djdimeja lol
