The Democratic Republic of Congo is facing a fresh wave of uncertainty in its eastern provinces after the killing of M23 rebel group spokesperson Willy Ngoma in a Congolese army drone strike near Rubaya. The region, a key hub for the world's coltan supply, has seen heavy fighting despite ongoing ceasefire efforts mediated by Qatar. With rebels controlling large swathes of North and South Kivu, questions remain about the future of peace, regional diplomacy, and the humanitarian impact on civilians. Joining Peter Ndoro to unpack these developments is DRC political analyst Didier Bayeye.
