Title: The Congolese army neutralizes terrorist commanders in the fight against the ADF/MTM
On Sunday, July 30, 2023, the Armed Forces of the Democratic Republic of Congo (FARDC) announced a major victory in their fight against the Democratic and Allied Forces (ADF/MTM), a terrorist group active in the region. During a joint patrol with the Ugandan army near Talia, in the Mwalika Valley, North Kivu, the FARDC managed to neutralize two ADF/MTM commanders.
According to Lieutenant-Colonel Mak Hazukay, spokesperson for the joint FARDC-UPDF operations, this operation also enabled the recovery of six weapons and their ammunition. The Congolese armed forces continue to secure the Mwalika Valley as part of their strategy to eliminate the presence of terrorist groups in the region.
This victory testifies to the efforts made by the FARDC to guarantee the security of Congolese citizens and to fight against the terrorist threats hanging over the country. Cooperation with the Ugandan army also demonstrates the importance of regional collaboration in the fight against terrorism.
The neutralization of these two ADF/MTM commanders is a blow to the terrorist group. This is a crucial step in operations to weaken and eliminate their influence in the region.
However, despite this victory, it is important to remain vigilant and to continue to support the efforts of the Congolese armed forces in their fight against terrorism. The threat persists and requires a coordinated and sustained response.
The actions of the Congolese armed forces to guarantee the security and stability of the country are essential for the development of the Democratic Republic of the Congo. It is important to recognize and salute their efforts, as well as those of all those who work daily to ensure the safety and well-being of the Congolese population.
In conclusion, the neutralization of two ADF/MTM terrorist commanders by the FARDC during a joint patrol with the Ugandan army is a significant victory in the fight against terrorism in the Democratic Republic of Congo. However, vigilance must remain in order to continue to guarantee the security of the country and its population
