💨 Abstract

Eastern and Southern African countries are contemplating deploying troops to secure regions of the Democratic Republic of Congo under M23 rebel control, according to a document reviewed by Reuters. The move follows a call for a ceasefire in the mineral-rich region, where over 7,000 people have been killed since January, as per Congo's prime minister. The defense chiefs are set to prepare a report for discussion this weekend.
