Several towns that fell to armed groups in the eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) have been recaptured by government forces, according to the Congolese army.
The Armed Forces of the DRC (FARDC) said some of the recovered towns have been occupied by rebels for months, including Ngungu, a key town in the Masisi territory that is near North Kivu’s provincial capital, Goma. Towns in South Kivu province have also been retaken.
