Congo files an ICJ case against Rwanda over decades of violence in eastern Congo

Congo filed an ICJ case against Rwanda, accusing it of violating international conventions on genocide, discrimination, and torture through decades of violence in eastern Congo. The conflict, involving Rwandan-backed groups like M23, has caused severe humanitarian crises, with the U.S. recently sanctioning a Rwanda-based gold refinery linked to M23. This is Congo's third ICJ attempt, following dismissed cases in 2001 and 2006.
