In DR Congo, Goma airport hit by at least one “bomb”. Loud explosions heard.

Goma isolated from the rest of the country. Since the end of 2021, North Kivu has been gripped by a conflict which pits the M23 ("March 23 Movement"), supported by units of the Rwandan army. The DR Congo accuses Rwanda and its M23 “adjuncts” of wanting to take control of the minerals of eastern Congo. The M23, for its part, claims to be defending a threatened segment of the population and is demanding negotiations.
