WATCH THE VIDEO HERE Dozens of Congolese army soldiers fled into the Rwandan border town of Rubavu on Monday, where they surrendered their weapons and were processed by Rwandese border officials. It follows an advance by the Rwanda-backed M23 rebels, who claimed they had captured the eastern city of Goma early Monday. Gunshots rang out across Goma overnight before dozens of rebels in military uniform marched into the city early Monday morning. The U.N. described a mass panic among Goma’s 2 million residents and Congo’s government said the rebel advance was a “declaration of war”. The Rwanda Defence Force (RDF) has confirmed the surrender of 120 Congolese soldiers, including members of the Democratic Republic of Congo’s Armed Forces (FARDC) and the Democratic Forces for the Liberation of Rwanda (FDLR), at the Rwanda-DRC border. Brigadier General Ronald Rwivanga, the RDF spokesperson, shared the update with media. Watch Video Of Africanews, Courtesy of Rwanda Tv CLICK Source:Africanews &Taarifanews
