The #DRC military claims it has foiled the #coup attempt.

The Congolese Spokesman confirmed an attempted coup against the authorities by unidentified militants. The spokesman claims the militants were backed by "foreign powers".
The residency of Deputy Prime Minister was also attacked, three dead.
Congolese troops deployed on the streets of Kinshasa near the Fleuve du Congo Hotel.
One of the alleged conspirators is apparently an American, named Benjamin Reuben.

What's Behind the Rising #Conflict in Eastern #DRC

Source: https://www.voanews.com/a/explainer-what-s-behind-the-rising-conflict-in-eastern-drc-/6690258.html

More than 100 armed groups operate in eastern DRC, an unsettled region where conflict has raged for decades but has escalated in recent months.

...

Fueling the #insecurity is a complicated brew of geopolitics, ethnic and national rivalries, and competition for #control of eastern DRC's abundant natural #resources.

...

"The DRC produces more than 70% of the world's #cobalt" and "holds 60% of the planet's #coltan reserves," the industry website #Mining #Technology reported in February, speculating that the DRC "could become the Saudi Arabia of the electric vehicle age."

#Sudan : The #UAE hired #Wagner in #Libya and now they are moving them to support #Hemeti via their other mercenary #Khalifa Haftar in Sudan.

🔴 Haftar who was born in #Egypt and is an American citizen is linked to #Sisi and Egypt because of his role in Eastern Libya as warlord. Burhan is using Egyptian pilots and is linked to Sisi.

🔴 Sudan like Libya, #CAR, #DRC etc is a fractured state many blame on colonial engineering. But the new order wants these African powerhouses to be fractous. Getting their moneysworth with small mercenary, proxy or military interference.
