In The Wake Of Trump’s ‘Peace Deal’, 200,000 Displaced In DR Congo

December 11, 2025 Pavan Kulkarni, People's Dispatch. , , , ,
About 200,000 people were forced to flee their homes in the South Kivu province in the eastern region of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), under attack by the M23 militia backed by Rwanda, which only days before had signed a US-brokered peace deal with the DRC. On December 10, the M23 reportedly advanced into Uvira, to which the provincial administration had relocated in March 2025 after South Kivu’s official capital, Bukavu, was occupied by Rwanda’s proxy force. With a population of over half a million, Uvira is a crucial commercial hub and a strategic gateway to the Greater Katanga region, hosting one of the DRC’s key economic zones.
