- The Democratic Republic of Congo's army says more than 3,000 people have responded to a call by President Felix Tshisekedi for volunteers to help fight another armed group, M23.
The armed group is widely believed to be supported by neighbouring Rwanda - a claim the government in Kigali denies.
Al Jazeera’s Malcolm Webb has more from Goma, Democratic Republic of Congo.

The day we will wake up and consider all Africans as brothers and sisters without interference from external forces is the day peace will prevail
Without interference from external forces hundreds of thousands of Africans would die of starvation and dehydration. The African countries need more help than any other.
Love you from Somalia
The day that Africa realizes her true identity one country at a time is the day of freedom! We may struggle in the process but we will get there! Congo needs no help taking back her identity!
So sad to see all this.

African problems need African solutions no interference from the west or outsiders has ever helped 🙏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
👆👆🤣🤣🤣 what a jokes. That's comment is funny. We can't even find solution on clean water and food security without going around the world to find solutions.
Lets be real Africans dont know how to manage their land and resources that's why we are where we are in life.
No outside assistance and the African starves

Rest well Mamadou Ndala very brave Colonel... Jealous people eliminated you for no reason. 🙏🙏❤️🌹 Will meet in Zion.
The day DRC will be stable, Africa will rejoice.
fact! its unfotunate thing that Paul kagame chooses the side of ernemy for few pieces of coins
Congo will never be stable if they continue to discriminate against their fellow KinyaRwandafones Congolese.
Why don't the banyarwanda go back to Rwanda, Congo is for Congolese and Uganda for Uganda, there Rwanda for Rwandese
My brother becareful, u have have caused tears in East Africa,one thing you have to know everything ha the beginning and end, u can't be superior forever , so mind you words,anything can happen
@@makobaandrew5523 this is a silly talk bro. If we were to go by your argument for instance,,, what would happen to Somalis in Kenya republic?
We are with you Congo ✊🏿🇺🇸🇨🇩
Thats the way to go!
Only Congolese people will liberate themselves from the Rwandan occupational alnarkba
Through thick and thin, we Kenyans will stand with the Congolese.
Long live my beautiful Bantu Congolese fam. The Most High protect you. And may He remove these corrupt and wicked leaders and their families, the rebels and life-sucking parasitic multinationals corporations.
I support the congo Army ... The people have suffered alot
I think is strong msg to multi national, they will never divide us, playing a game we didn't know before now we grow up and we know, that's why have to protect our land from now.
Thank you my dear brothers and sisters for uniting together to fight for our country long viva Congolese people and our independence!!!!!!
Let take this moment to thank all the Kinyarwandafones who decided to unit to fight for their right too.
God is with Congo
Let Congo's identity rise up! Everybody else stay out as your presence has yielded nothing but further chaos for Congo! Stay Out! Let the Congolese rise up!
This will continue until the Country become free. All young Congolese in any part of the world will be part of the Army Force. An army of 20.000.000 soldiers is needed for the Country.
If dream big was a person 😂😂😂😂😂
the international Community Know all about this Sheet Uganda and Rwanda are just like a shadow but will fight for our country none will separate us 💪🇨🇬💪🇨🇬💪
May peace prevail in this Great Nation.
The Richest Country in Gold fighting, may peace prevail

C’est le Rwanda qui est trop bête. Le Président de la RDC Félix Tshisekedi à tout fait pour éviter la guerre, mais le Rwanda ne veut rien comprendre et veut la guerre. Malheureusement la RDC est obligée de faire la guerre, malgré sa bonne volonté, pour se défendre et défendre ses populations.
It's a time for DRC to reborn through these mobisation and unity as a Congolese because they was torn apart since long time ago and the government is doing a good job to recruit new army and remove infiltration in FARDC.if they continue in this way,very soon insecurity in east of DRC it's gonna be end
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
This is really great n good news to hear as a african jamaican ,d most high YAH bless mamma africa🙏🙏🙏
The Congolese government must urgently redouble Its efforts to build a strong, well trained and better equipped army in order to be able to put that little belligerent country in its rightful place. Kagame with his overly inflated ego thinks he's some sort of a god but hopefully the Congolese will soon deal with him in the only language he understands.

DRC with God against Rwanda M23
DRCongo has the capacity of stabilizing the whole Africa economy, all we need is to be United first
There are 2 sides to every coin. DR Congo people should not forget who the real antagonizers of DR Congo are while their attention is directed towards the M23 rebels. Everyone who is in DR Congo that is pretending to help DR Congo has an ulterior motive or serving the interests of another government entity, multinationals, businessmen and is only in DR Congo as a smoke screen. I am a Kenyan and I know things are not always black and white. DR Congo people can make their country the greatest in Africa if they unite and kick out everyone whose activities do not serve the interests of the Congolese people.
Very true . I wish all Africans could have your thinking bro.
True, DR Congo has so much potential but they ain't using it.
So what alterior motive drives Kenya into the DRC?
@@corvusglaive5769 I never said Kenya has one.
@@JosephMwema well this is awkward Your statement read, "EVERYONE who is in DR Congo." As of 20th November, Kenya is one of the countries in DRC.
They are so funny what kind of these army !!hahaha these are militia like Interahamwe from Rwanda in 90's
Europe (France) is to be blamed for all this problems among all these poor people..
I disagree. Africa should not expect to be babysat by colonial powers for ever. African countries must rise to the occasion, and through sound leadership, solve challenges facing them. Blame game is only a tool that serves those with weak minds.

Stop intimidating Congolese and let us watch them take back their Country!
@@guelorboyo6543 okay we will see .you guy an army of 5000 soldiers destabilize the whole country with 100k soldiers…and you think you have the power to destabilize Uganda and Rwanda ? Brother first deal with m23 and then we will see
Those who are tutsiphobic, Why those areas have kinyarwanda names: bwiza,runyoni,karengera,jomba,kibumba,etc...,why tutsi are the only persecuted tribe in congo??if you don't want us,we will happily join rwanda with our land.
In 1980 Yoweri Museveni disagreed with Obote and Launched Luweero war.Gen David Oyite Ojok(one of best trained soldiers in Uganda history) died in a plane crash on his way to Luweero.This changed the direction of the war.Between 1981-86 Paul Kagame and Fred Rwigema together with other banyarwanda tutsi exiled in Uganda fought alongside Yoweri Museveni in Uganda.
In 1985 regional/nepostistic disagreements between Uganda Army Commander, General Tito Okello(Luo-Acholi) and President Milton Obote(Luo-Langi) over the promotion of Smith Acak Opon(Luo-Langi) to replace the late Gen Oyite Ojok(Luo-Langi) instead of General Bazillio Okello(Luo-Acholi) caused a coup against Milton Obote.Gen Tito Okello became president(1985-86) and Gen Bazillio Okello became army commander.
Daniel Moi called peace talks in Nairobi between Yoweri Museveni and Gen Tito Okello.The agreement(witnessed by Ambassador Bethwell Kiplagat of Kenya) required Gen Tito Okello to be president and Yoweri Museveni to be vice president.THE TALKS COLLAPSED when Soldiers allied to Yoweri Museveni and led by Rwandans Paul Kagame and Fred Rwigema continued a push against Gen Tito Okello led Soldiers in Uganda.
Kagame and museveni should go‼️
This has always been their strategy, to seek dialogue and mixing of forces and then, they will violate the peace agreement and overthrow others to seize power completely. One they did in Uganda, so the same thing in Rwanda, now, they want to to do the same thing in Congo. Congolese hope is in its youth who suffers a lot from multiple aggressions from these two neighboring countries.
AM UGANDAN I LOVE MY COUNTRY BUT I KNOW WHO MY MZEI'S BEHAVIOUR AND HE DOESN'T HAVE A WEAK SPOT THAT'S THE PROBLEM JUST LEAVE THAT GUY ALONE AND THE OTHER THING IS THAT HE IS A VERY PETIENT PERSON
Good History,was wondering where Gen.Tito's role was in this war!
@@Gtt198 but the patiance of Ugandans is shrinking day by day, one day those tutsi/nyankole cabals will die like dogs
Stop the propaganda and stop blaming Rwanda for the tensions in DRC,
This is exactly the work of the colonizers and exactly what they wanted for Africa
Sorry Congo hope you get peace, people who have never experienced war may never understand. I feel for the people of Ukraine same fate, ...if the world really cared about congo peace could have been achieved way back, we lost Patrice Lumumba. Congo is always bleeding as we use smart phones to twit,TikTok, Facebook and communicate while people are dying and children sleeping hungry while we use their resources
The problem of Congo is partnering with militias and commit atrocities to a group of population just because they are different looking , taking they land ,killing and force them into exile , the solution to those problems will be the Congolese to stop atrocities to those community and peace will come
@@bbjelmirador3975 100%
@@bbjelmirador3975 Well said.
@@bbjelmirador3975 you are right
@@bbjelmirador3975 you’re not making any sense, stop spreading such lies. Congolese people are the the most kind hearted people I know. Those neighboring countries Rwanda and Ouganda, even Burundi heave been causing so much trouble since the 1990s, when the hutus fled their country to enter Congo because the Tutsis were committing genocide against them. All the the other borders were blocked but the Congo’s, which was systematically done to allow the Tutsi rebels to infiltrate Congo and many other reasons…Long story short, Kagame is a cold hearted human, a devil used by the west to suppress, massacre and kill the Congolese so they can have access to the riches (minerals) of the blessed land of Congo. But, God is alive, it’s a matter of time
Since Laurent kabila free Ziare non stop fighting ,Get yourself together my brothers ,there enough wealth to go around
God bless DRC
There go América starting trouble again
This remind me of what happened in Rwanda 1994.
God Bless u all Congolese in the name of Jesus Christ 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Amen! King of Kings! 👑
It looks like May and June 1994 when the French army trained thousand of young Rwandans Hutus preparinh them to back FAR!
DRC will not be able to control them after receiving weapons.They will turn into armed group in a near future
Cong need more support from other African countries.
No, it does not! It's time for Congo to rise up and kick out all foreigners who have brought nothing but devastation in a 20 year span!
@@rewritingjustice227 congo can't fight Uganda rwanda burundi alone, Cong needs real support from other countries, Uganda soldiers have war experience, almost 30 years Ugandan soldiers have been fighting, now cone need more support
Congo! the richest country on earth, but peace is a dream that is far from you. God is your only deliver my fellow humans.
The richest country on earth? 😂😂 It isn't even the richest country in africa
This war never ends?????? What’s wrong with this planet
The DRC should be dismantled and have a redo, it's a failed country and it should start fresh and get rid of extreme poverty, corruption, militias, etc
All bantus live peacefully among each other. it's always some non bantu like the Cushitic tutsi bringing turmoil in our land.
Tutsi live in Uganda east Congo Kenya Tanzania Burundi Rwanda bye bye
@Esengo Ma Monga well said, Tutsis are messy and very problematic since centuries ago. They all need to go back to Abyssinia where they came from
This is how Jenocide started in Rwanda when civilian were given guns and other weapons. Remember they were against one part of people similar to how it is in Congo. M23 is fighting mostly fo people who speaks Kinyarwanda including other races security. Time is coming for another bloodshed in Eastern Africa. God help your people 😢😢😢🙏🙏
You are on wrong side brother congo is fighting with Rwanda.
So what is the solution?
@@gustavebadibanga5266 how can can congo fight against rwanda if congo can't defeat a rebel group m23 which lost towns to the same rebel group , lol
@@gustavebadibanga5266 my friend All people that speak kinyarwanda : rwandese language aren't from Rwanda. If you study history Africa you will see how countries were divided without consulting the people before. And this make it happen that most people can be of the same family but as from long times ago areas were cut and changed names it makes them no more family but foreigners! So what is happening in Congo, I believe the rwandese speaking from there saw how everyone were pointing out to them saying they are the ones to blame and this made them find by any means how to defender and protect themselves. Because at the place they are has always been their home but they were called tutsi, only this came after the genocide when the Interahamwe took refuge in Congo after the killing a d when they reached there they found the people who look exactly like the ones they have been killing. And they themselves started to call them tutsi and so on.. So when you are saying that they should go to Rwanda, what are you gonna say about every East African countries sending to Rwanda all the tutsi look alike???? Because mostly in EAST Africa people look like Tutsi and most o f them speak swahili. It is so complicated to handle!
@@jeaneuwii M23 leaders were once members of the Congo official army, they chose to desert even though they could've voiced their concerns from the inside. Now other Congolese tutsi find themselves not trusted by their government due to this.
I support Congolese 100% and we should not forget where the m23 get money from"The west"
Africa must form a formidable force to fight these rebels together
Kenya KDF has Given Them Hope and They are Volunteering To Better Their Lives
Africa o Africa- always fighting each other WAKE UP
Yeah that's it fire with fire
End of Kagame
mistake, mistake, mistake, this is how the genocide in Rwanda started. before the 1994 genocide against tutsi, interahamwe were recruited to fight RPA Inkotanyi but instead they were turned into militant and started killing tutsis who had nothing to do with RPA.
African history is a pattern
Do you watch Jim Nduruchi
United African don't let nobody divided you African
Fellow Africans stop fighting
Courageous men
Peace in Africa,May Allah protect African and Africans.
As a Kenyan I will say this to Congolese people, it was your government that contacted Nairobi to send troops to help fight m23 because you couldn't do it alone for the Congolese who think their army is better of fighting alone should go to the president tell him to return our soldiers home. Don't go around saying you could have done it alone without help if that was the case you could have dealt with this groups long ago and right now DRC could be rich but your military has failed to do it alone.
Tears of the "sun". Watching from higher self.
Why spend 7.2billion taxpayers money,when these young people want to defend their own country?

African solutions for African problems.
Rwanda should change this narrative.
Very risky for them.
We don't need foreigners to keep piece in DRC Kongo, we need Africans soldiers
3 thousand volunteers in a country of 90 million. They will certainly make a difference.
Why??? Africa and Africans, why don't we live in peace than to rest in peace(RIP)??????
The early we know and come to terms that we are brothers and sisters the better for ALL OF US!!!
A STITCH IN TIME SAVES NINE, ENOUGH OF THIS MADNESS, PLEASE I BEG OF ALL OF US🙏🙏🙏

Fight for you country guys
Africans are always starving
They are simply looking chaotic!! To be honest, they are not looking like they would be serious soldiers to threaten enemy. Congo need to take serious the issue of security. I just sympathize.
Very impoverished also.
Armies recruit from their country's population. They will be trained and changed from civilian mindset. Only UAE fields an army of mostly paid soldiers from all over the world.
This another waste of time. First, Congolese are not cut for fighting. Its not the 1st time they show off and run away as soon as bullets are heard.
Western Proxy wars to control Strategic Mines for EV cars and Chips …we the people have to endure such because of our weak leaders..the Question should be Who does Kagame work for?
Who does M7 work for?
And Who does Tshekendi work for?
It’s not the people for sure!!!
Africans will only get stable when they realize the Enemy is outside the continent and He is not Black!!!
true dat, dem people take pleasure in seeing Africans fighting amongst themselves.
Its Museveni and kagame destabilizing congo because of their own personal interests. Am behind Congo to fight. Kenya too is under Uganda do not be fooled brethren
I appreciate the decision made by east Africa leaders to sent troops for the serenity of our regional
They would definitely be worse than than the UN because they themselves are cowards. They will come to exploit Congolese resources and get paid for doing nothing. Remember this are troops that could not even secure their own countries. Congos problems needs Congolese solutions. The UN has been there for over 2 decades , the African forces would be there till eternity and Congo will never see the light if peace.
@@mosmart4718 most of Africans believe Congolese problem influenced by external force Rwanda as good example here
@@vitusjumah we need to address the problem head on with the realities on the ground. It’s sad Congo is supposed to be a wealthy nation that can feed all of its people. Only God is just and we seek his guidance bro
From the days of Katanga to the present day, the Congolese couldn't catch a break.
Kagame should be in the Hague as we speak now; this world is a place of injustice and the so-called international community is a hotbed of injustice.
M23 is just a name, the question is Who is the real M23?
Freedom to people of the world from democracy!
Similar to Interahamwe trainings in Rwanda 1994🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
