FDLR Rebels Sign Landmark Disarmament Protocol with Congolese Government

The Democratic Forces for the Liberation of Rwanda (FDLR) signed a formal protocol on July 31, 2026, committing to a comprehensive disarmament process. This development is a key pillar of a US-brokered peace initiative aimed at de-escalating the conflict between the DR Congo and Rwanda. While seen as a diplomatic breakthrough, regional stability remains fragile as the M23 rebel group continues to maintain control over large swaths of territory in North Kivu.
