77% Informative
M23 rebels now control the two largest cities in this mineral-rich area of DR Congo .
The rebel group, mainly comprised of ethnic Tutsis , has been on the march since early 2022 .
UN experts say Rwanda has "de facto control" over the group - claims Kigali and Rwandan President Paul Kagame deny.
Human rights groups accuse rebels of indiscriminate shelling, gang rape and summary executions.
They level the same accusations at the Congolese army and their allies.
The decades -long conflict has its roots - in part - in the Rwanda genocide of 1994 .
Rwanda says they remain a threat, but critics say Kigali has its eye on mineral wealth.
