UNSC: Congo's FDLR rebels now in peacekeepers' sights

After the success of the Congolese army and UN peacekeepers in defeating M23 rebels, the UN Security Council agreed on Wednesday that attention should now turn to tackling other armed groups in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo, envoys said.

 

At the top of the list is the Democratic Forces for the Liberation of Rwanda (FDLR), which includes some Hutus who fled neighboring Rwanda after the 1994 genocide of 800,000 Tutsi and moderate Hutus, said French UN Ambassador Gerard Araud. (Reuters)
