Nearly 300 Foreign Mercenaries Surrender in Eastern DRC
Goma – Nearly 300 foreign mercenaries hired by the DRC government to fight M23 rebels have surrendered and are returning home.
After M23 captured Goma, the mercenaries, along with Congolese troops and militias, were cornered near Lake Kivu and the Rwandan border. With no escape, they surrendered to UN peacekeepers, who arranged their transit home via Rwanda.
