DR Congo faces a cash crisis as M23 rebels seize territory
M23 rebels seizing territory in eastern DR Congo trigger a cash shortage and economic disruption in affected areas.
M23 rebels have seized additional territory in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo, intensifying conflict and disrupting economic activity. The cash crisis in captured areas has made hard currency difficult to obtain, complicating business operations and everyday transactions. Seizure of resource‑rich zones deprives the state of mining revenues, particularly from gold, and undermines local economic stability.
