BREAKING: DRC Army Intensifies Bombardment of Rwandan Territory

DR Congo / Rwanda: More bullshit from Louise Mushikiwabo

hamishinauckland.blogspot.com - 4 hours ago


The DRC army, known by its French acronym, FARDC has Thursday amassed
heavily-armed troops and heavy artillery near the border with Rwanda
before shelling inside the Rwandan territory, in what appears as a
carefully planned military onslaught.

It seems unlikely. The Congo DRC News Facebook ( this is a M23 site
and should be treated with some skepticism ) page reports in French (
Google Translation )

" Some sources accuse the FARDC have crossed the border in an attempt
to steal a cow in Rwanda. Other sources speak of a provocation on the
part of the Rwandan army. "

If the Congolese Army think they have the ability to defeat the RDF in
Rwanda they are deluding themselves. The cow story is plausible
enough, normally I wouldn't be the least bit surprised by the
provocation allegation on the part of the RDF.

The development has puzzled observers with many wondering why FARDC,
which is known to be less powerful than the battle-hardened and more
experienced Rwanda Defence Forces (RDF), would risk Rwanda's wrath.

It was earlier thought that the Wednesday morning clashes between
FARDC and RDF were accidental.

However, Chimpreports understands that today morning; FARDC again
pounded Busasamana in Rwanda, sending hundreds scampering for safety.

I noticed this story yesterday and was at a loss to explain why FARDC
would piss off the RDF for no real reason today however we have a
further development reported again by Uganda's Chimp Report

" Following clashes between the armed forces of the Democratic
Republic of the Congo (DRC) and Rwanda, a team of military
investigators on Thursday visited the border areas to probe
circumstances into the eyebrow-raising incidents.

The Expanded Joint Verification Mechanism (EJVM) toured Busasamana
Sector in Rwanda which was Wednesday attacked by elements of the
Congolese army known by its French acronym FARDC."

The Mechanism is a technical body, comprising military experts from
both DRC and Rwanda, and supported by the African Union and the UN, to
address DRC-Rwanda border security issues, amongst other tasks.

From Rwanda villages, the team, which also comprised journalists and
military attaches, also crossed to DRC side where 5 bodies of
Congolese soldiers were found."

Or in other words the facts as reported by Chimp Report yesterday
don't really tie in with the situation on the ground. Five dead
Congolese soldiers killed by the RDF in Rwanda would have given some
legitimacy to the Rwandan outrage, it was a situation I felt might be
plausible when the reported " cow napping " was considered. However
there seems to be no argument that the FARDC soldiers were killed by
the RDF in the DR Congo. That alone puts a very different spin on
these reports.

Sources at the border said DRC troops were bringing tanks closer to
the Rwandan border and that some FDLR elements were embedded within
FARDC apparently as part of a wider plan to launch a full-scale war on
Rwanda.

Really ? Five dead Congolese soldiers killed by the Rwandan military
on the sovereign territory of the DR Congo and the interpretation of
this is that the Congolese army having moved soldiers and equipment to
the border are planning to invade Rwanda.

"There are hundreds of DRC soldiers at Ruhunda who poured in under the
cover of darkness. By morning, almost a battalion had reached there.
The soldiers appear to be in a war mood," said a Corp at the border of
the two countries.

FARDC claims killing some Rwandan soldiers, but Kigali on Wednesday
announced that only 5 of DRC soldiers had been killed in the fighting.

That is interesting. and the EJVM finds those soldiers bodies in the
Congo whilst this report, which no one could doubt emanates from
Rwanda suggests this was FARDC aggression. So we can conclude once
again this is yet more Rwandan lies.

The Rwandan government on Wednesday sternly warned it "stands ready to
act to protect its citizens," following attacks by elements of the DRC
army.

In a strong-worded statement, Rwanda Foreign Affairs Minister, Louise
Mushikiwabo said "a series of actions by the DRC continue to undermine
regional efforts towards peace," adding, "The DRC government should
take care not to cultivate unnecessary provocation and stop its
soldiers from repeatedly crossing into the Rwandan villages."

The Rwandan Government is composed of lairs and Louise Mushikiwabois
one of the most accomplished experienced lairs ( note; I did not say
plausible ) they have.

Rwanda revealed that on Wednesday morning in Rusura cell in the sector
of Busasamana, a section of the DRC army crossed the border to Rwanda
where they opened fired on a Rwanda Defense Force (RDF) patrol.

"The RDF retaliated and the resulting exchange of fire killed one
FARDC soldier identified as Hategekimana Boysiro. The RDF immediately
requested the Extended Joint Verification Mechanism for an independent
assessment but their access to the site was denied by DRC
authorities."

Rwandan revelations that are now proven to be bullshit. The soldiers
were killed in the DR Congo where their remains were found. The EJVM
was not denied access. Hilarious on one level that Rwanda demanded
then got the EJVM inspection that disproved the Rwandan version of
events.

Not at all funny though if you consider that five Congolese soldiers
were killed by the RDF in this attempt to continue the Rwandan
destabilisation of the Eastern DR Congo.

Government also pointed out that the "morning attacks were followed by
a second attempt by two FARDC platoons to deploy into Rwanda that
resulted in further exchange of fire leaving four FARDC soldiers
dead."

Yes... the Rwandan version just doesn't add up when today's
revelations are factored in.

DRC army spokesperson, Olivier Hamuli denied accusations that FARDC
attacked Rwanda.

"RDF soldiers attacked our positions in Kanyesheja around 5:00am which
compelled FARDC to react accordingly," said Hamuli.

That has a ring of truth to it, it is certainly consistent with the
facts as reported now.

This website understands Rwanda has also tightened security along its
border amid the escalating tensions.

Which may explain the whole incident. Rwanda want's to invade the DR
Congo and knows it needs to have away of convincing the International
Community it is justified because the International Community is sick
to the death of Rwanda. Predictably Rwanda fucked it up.

These attacks come less than a year after a series of bombs were
launched on Rwandan territory by FARDC during the war against the M23
movement in Eastern Congo.

Except they weren't launched by the FARDC at Rwandabut from Rwanda's
proxy M23 into into Rwanda or in other words yet another attempt to
alter international opinion with idiotic lies that are exposed as such
within a few hours much as is the case here.

On a side note the Chimp Reports needs to employ a few journalists or
give up the reporting game. This is just awful work.

" The accusations by the DRC government minister support claims from
the United Nations Mission in Congo (MONUSCO) officials that the
Rwandan backed M23 Congolese rebels have fired rockets into Rwanda on
Thursday August 22, 2013 (see our article:

Rwandan Military Accuses FARDC of Bombing Rwanda As M23 Rebels Resume
Combats. On Friday, August 23, 2013, the UN officials in New York
confirmed that M23 rebels bombed Rwandan territory and also destroyed
telecommunications infrastructure used by MONUSCO in the city of Goma,
Eastern DRC, including a phone tower."

This includes an attack in August 2013 where a bomb launched from DRC
territory landed in a marketplace in Bugangari, killing Vestine
Mukagasana and seriously injuring her two months old son.

Terrible to think that the Rwandan Government came up with a plan to
change the opinion of the world that involved killing its own
citizens, was caught out and yet we now see essentially the same
objective and an equally stupid plan. This regime is toxic.

Mushikiwabo warned the DRC leadership against any further hostilities:

While the eyes of the world are watching, the stupid bitch Mushikiwabo
thinks Rwanda can indulge in idiotic murderous foolishness, release
disinformation and some how think we will be sucked in ... it beggars
belief.

"These actions by the DRC are jeopardising the region's extensive
efforts to ensure peace, stability and development for all our
citizens. We urge the leadership of the DRC to embrace the logic of
peace and end all attacks on the Rwandan territory. Rwanda stands
ready to act to protect its citizens."

Yes as Mushikiwabo is not very bright, I might suggest next time
Rwanda wants to indulge in such stupidity take the killed soldiers
bodies back across the border to Rwanda, it won't help much but it
will buy you a further 24 to 48 hours of time before the world can
prove you are lying.

Rwanda said in the past three months, the DRC has unilaterally closed
its border with Rwanda, imposed visa fees despite regional and
bilateral agreements and failed to honour their commitment to
neutralise the FDLR militia operating in the DRC for the last twenty
years.

In other words the DR Congo has asserted sovereignty over its
territory against a hostile neighbour, namely Rwanda. The FDLR issue
is one Rwanda have a legitimate interest in but they are an excuse.
Rwanda will be consulted in the fullness of time but the FDLR remain a
problem for MONUSCO and the Congolese government at this point. Rwanda
is attempting to trigger yet another crisis in the eastern DR Congo
using the FDLR as an excuse. This is not about the 1994 genocide, this
is about Bulcanisation.
