Washington sanctions in Congo to address threats

The United States has imposed sanctions on leaders from the groups Democratic Forces for the Liberation of Rwanda (FDLR) and March 23 Movement (M23), both supported by Rwanda, in an effort to address threats affecting the stability of eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo. The sanctions target leaders such as Gustave Kobwajyo, who has committed acts of ethnic violence, sexual violence, and used children as fighters, as well as John Immuni Nzenzei, who carried out attacks and violations of human rights against civilians in the region. These measures are part of the U.S. commitment to support peace and stability in the area.
