DRC Refugees In Bugarama - Rwanda

Displaced people from the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) are seen in the town of Bugarama in neighboring Rwanda, on Dec. 5, 2025. The March 23 Movement (M23) rebels have expanded their operations across several areas of South Kivu Province in eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) over the past days, even as the DRC and Rwanda signed in Washington a peace deal hailed as a major step toward de-escalation in the region. Residents in the affected areas reported a FARDC pullback and the displacement of civilians fleeing the new combat zones. Hundreds of families have arrived in Uvira, while others from Kamanyola, a strategic crossroad in the province, crossed into Rwanda to escape shellfire.

US President Donald Trump speaks during a meeting with Democratic Republic of the Congo Foreign Minister Therese Kayikwamba Wagner (R) and Rwandan Foreign Minister Olivier Nduhungirehe (2nd-L) in the Oval Office of the White House in Washington, DC, USA on June 27, 2025. Also in the meeting, US Vice President JD Vance (3rd-L) and US Secretary of State Marco Rubio (2nd-R). Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo will sign an agreement in Washington on Friday to put an end to a conflict in the eastern DRC that has killed thousands, although broad questions loom on what it will mean. Trump has trumpeted the diplomacy that led to the deal and publicly complained that he has not received a Nobel Peace Prize. But the agreement has also come under scrutiny for its vagueness including on the economic component, with the Trump administration eager to compete with China and profit from abundant mineral wealth in the long-turbulent east of the vast DRC.

Also in the meeting, US Vice President JD Vance (3rd-L) and US Secretary of State Marco Rubio (2nd-R). Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo will sign an agreement in Washington on Friday to put an end to a conflict in the eastern DRC that has killed thousands, although broad questions loom on what it will mean. Trump has trumpeted the diplomacy that led to the deal and publicly complained that he has not received a Nobel Peace Prize. But the agreement has also come under scrutiny for its vagueness including on the economic component, with the Trump administration eager to compete with China and profit from abundant mineral wealth in the long-turbulent east of the vast DRC.
