#Rwandan troops ‘dying in large numbers in #DRC’, despite official denials of role.
Exclusive: Sources say thousands of #RDF killed supporting #M23 rebels in eastern Congo, intensifying pressure on Kigali.
Diplomatic sources say the true number of Rwandan dead – evidence of sustained frontline involvement – would be acutely damaging for Kagame.
Emmanuel Ngabo, who runs a group in France called ARC Urunana Nyarwanda France (Rwandan Alliance for Change), says he has received numerous indications from grieving parents that large numbers of Rwandans have been killed.
“There are so many bodies needing to be processed. There is such a queue of families waiting [for burial] that they are only allowed 30 minutes at the graveside.”
Ngabo, not his real name, adds: “The coffins are always closed, either because the soldier is so badly injured or burnt he is unrecognisable, or because there is nobody inside the box.
