A panel of United Nations experts reports that violations of a peace agreement in eastern Congo are widespread and involve multiple parties to the conflict. The experts state that “all parties” are failing to comply with the terms of the deal and are carrying out abuses. Their assessment describes continuing harmful conduct despite the existence of the negotiated framework, indicating that enforcement mechanisms and compliance measures are not being effective on the ground. The report characterizes the situation as ongoing rather than resolved, with violations occurring across the region affected by fighting between armed groups and security forces. The experts’ findings are presented as part of the UN’s regular monitoring and reporting on implementation of ceasefire or peace commitments in eastern Congo. Both outlets summarize the same core conclusion: peace terms are being breached, and abuses continue to be reported, with responsibility attributed broadly rather than to a single actor. The report underscores the need for stronger compliance and accountability measures to reduce violence and protect civilians in the conflict-affected areas.
