Coalition Chisambo-Masunzu & Défaite du M23 au Sud-Kivu

La Province du Sud-Kivu est connue pour avoir abrité les mouvements rebelles à l’Est de la République Démocratique du Congo (RDC) depuis les années d’après indépendance. La rébellion Muleliste Simba aurait opéré au Sud-Kivu jusqu’aux années 80.
