On this day full of emotion and determination, the Armed Forces of the Democratic Republic of Congo (FARDC) announced the imminent launch of a special operation to dismantle the Mobondo militiamen and their collaborators. Under the command of Major General Padiri, the eleventh military region of Greater Bandundu is preparing to carry out a major intervention to counter the activities of the insurgents who threaten the security and peace of the population.
The official statement, made during a solemn parade in Kikwit, testifies to the determination of the military authorities to put an end to the actions of the militiamen and restore order in the region. General Padiri stressed the importance of strengthening discipline among the troops, stressing that the security and peace of the population are absolute priorities.
In this region of Greater Bandundu, the provinces of Mai-Ndombe and Kwango are particularly affected by the insecurity caused by armed groups, among which the Mobondo stand out for their activism. The ongoing military operations aim to put an end to this threat and restore the authority of the State throughout the territory.
By calling for increased cooperation between the military and the population, General Padiri assures that operations are progressing significantly and that measures are being taken to ensure the security of all. The fight against the Mobondo militiamen and their allies remains a major challenge, but the FARDC is determined to confront this threat with determination and professionalism.
This announcement demonstrates the will of the Congolese authorities to preserve the security of citizens and guarantee a peaceful future for the Greater Bandundu region. In this difficult context, cooperation between the defense and security forces and the population appears to be an essential element in addressing security challenges and building a more peaceful future for all.
