🇨🇩🇷🇼 Less than a week after Trump, Kagame and Tshisekedi signed a major peace deal, UN says new fighting in South Kivu has displaced over 200,000 ➤ OCHA reports a rapidly worsening situation in South Kivu since December 2, with heavy fighting across Uvira, Walungu, Mwenga, Shabunda, Kabare, Fizi and Kalehe. More than 200,000 people have been displaced and at least 70 civilians killed. ➤ Overcrowded displacement sites face disease risks and WFP has suspended food assistance as the fighting made it too dangerous and operationally impossible to continue distributions, cutting off 25,000 people who depended on it. ➤ At least 32 schools sheltering families have halted classes, leaving more than 12,000 children without their only hot meal of the day. ➤ Nearly 25,000 people crossed into Burundi between December 5 and 8, with additional arrivals in Rwanda. Aid groups are providing hot meals, water and health services. ➤ The UN says the humanitarian response is critically underfunded. The DRC plan stands at just 22 percent. All parties were urged to stop fighting, protect civilians and allow safe humanitarian access.

🇨🇩 Democratic Republic of the Congo | Feb. 8, 2026

The Democratic Republic of Congo’s army says it killed more than 30 M23 fighters and recaptured several strategic towns in South Kivu after 2 days of fighting, regaining territory the rebel group had held for months.

In a statement issued Sunday...
In a statement issued Sunday, the Ministry of National Defense said government forces retook Minembwe, Fizi, Uvira, and Mwenga, and are continuing operations across the highlands overlooking the Fizi–Uvira corridor. The ministry said the army also captured allied combatants, including members of the Twigwaneho and Ngumino militias, during operations in Fizi territory. The recaptured areas are strategically critical. The Minembwe–Fizi highlands dominate the surrounding lowlands, allowing forces who control them to observe, shell, or cut off towns such as Uvira and key routes toward Bukavu. Control of these highlands also means control of road networks linking South Kivu to Tanganyika and Katanga, including supply corridors running toward some of the country’s most important mining regions. Despite the reported gains, the government warned the security situation remains fragile. The highlands remain heavily militarized, and civilians continue to face displacement and violence. Humanitarian organizations say fighting across South Kivu throughout 2025 displaced more than 500,000 people, with Uvira, Walungu, Mwenga, Shabunda, Kabare, Fizi, and Kalehe among the worst affected. The clashes are unfolding in a country that produces about 70 percent of the world’s cobalt, a mineral central to global battery and electric-vehicle supply chains.
