DR Congo says militia linked to Rwanda's genocide agree to surrender

By GhanaSummary NewsroomPan-Africa

Under a surrender protocol, the Democratic Forces for the Liberation of Rwanda (FDLR) also reportedly agreed to return to Rwanda or a third country that would accept them.

The Congolese government said in an address on national television on Tuesday that a militia operating in the east of the country, linked to Rwanda’s 1994 genocide, has agreed to disarm and demobilise.

Kigali has long demanded that Congo neutralise the ​armed group as a condition for any lasting peace, accusing Kinshasa of fighting alongside FDLR.
