The UN High Commissioner for Human Rights has requested an immediate cessation of combat operations between the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) military and the M23 militia in South Kivu.

聯合國人權事務高級專員要求剛果民主共和國（DRC）軍隊與M23民兵在南基伍省立即停止戰鬥行動。

The current escalation in the South Kivu border region is situated within a protracted historical framework of instability. Following the Rwandan genocide of the 1990s, the migration of Hutu populations into Zaire precipitated Rwandan military interventions in 1996 and the subsequent Congo Wars (1997–2003). Despite a formal peace agreement in 2003, a state of persistent friction remains, exacerbated by the region's significant reserves of coltan, tin, and gold. The current conflict is characterized by mutual accusations of proxy support: the DRC alleges Rwandan backing of the M23, while Rwanda contends that the DRC has failed to neutralize the Democratic Forces for the Liberation of Rwanda (FDLR).

目前南基伍邊境地區的衝突升級，處於一個長期的不穩定歷史框架之中。繼1990年代盧安達發生種族滅絕後，胡圖族人口遷入剛果（Zaire），導致盧安達軍隊於1996年介入，隨後爆發剛果戰爭（1997–2003年）。儘管2003年簽署了正式和平協議，但摩擦依然持續，且由於該地區擁有大量鈳鉭鐵礦、錫和金礦，情況 further 惡化。目前的衝突特徵在於雙方互相指責支持代理人：剛果民主共和國指責盧安達支持M23，而盧安達則主張剛果未能中和盧安達解放民主力量（FDLR）。

Recent operational developments indicate a failure of diplomatic frameworks, including a Doha-based peace agreement and commitments made during the Joint Oversight Committee's sixth meeting in London. Hostilities intensified around July 4 and 5 in the Fizi and Mwenga plateau regions, specifically near Mulima village. Reports indicate the deployment of heavy artillery, armed drones, and wide-area explosive weapons in populated sectors. While the Congolese military claims to have recovered strategic positions in Kimete, Wihene, and Kashamata, the UN expresses concern regarding potential war crimes and the displacement of civilian populations.

近期行動發展顯示外交框架已經失效，包括在多哈簽署的和平協議，以及在倫敦舉行的聯合監督委員會第六次會議上做出的承諾。7月4日與5日左右，Fizi 與 Mwenga 高原地區，特別是 Mulima 村附近，衝突加劇。報告指出在人口密集區部署了重型火砲、武裝無人機及大面積爆炸性武器。雖然剛果軍方聲稱在 Kimete、Wihene 和 Kashamata 收復了戰略陣地，但聯合國對可能發生的戰爭罪行及平民流離失所表示擔憂。

Concurrent internal pressures further complicate the security environment. The administration of President Felix Tshisekedi faces domestic instability due to proposed constitutional reforms, which the C64 opposition alliance characterizes as a mechanism for the illicit extension of presidential term limits. Furthermore, the intersection of armed conflict and the ongoing Ebola outbreak in South Kivu presents a significant risk to public health containment efforts.

同時，內部壓力進一步使安全環境複雜化。總統 Felix Tshisekedi 的政府因擬議的憲法改革而面臨國內不穩定，C64 反對派聯盟將其定性為非法延長總統任期的機制。此外，武裝衝突與南基伍省持續爆發的伊波拉疫情交織，對公共衛生防疫工作構成了重大風險。

The region remains in a state of volatile instability, with the UN urging a bilateral withdrawal of foreign troops and the demobilization of militant factions to prevent further humanitarian degradation.

該地區仍處於動盪不定的狀態，聯合國敦促雙方撤出外國軍隊並解散武裝派系，以防止人道主義狀況進一步惡化。
