Rwandan-backed rebels enter Congo's Goma in major escalation
GOMA, Democratic Republic of Congo (Reuters) -Rwandan-backed rebels marched into east Congo's largest city Goma on Monday and Congolese troops exchanged fire with the Rwandan military across the border, in the worst escalation of the long-running conflict for more than a decade. A rebel alliance led by the ethnic Tutsi-led M23 militia said it had seized the lakeside city of over 2 million people, a major hub for displaced people and aid groups which lies on the border with Rwanda and was last occupied by M23 in 2012. The deep pounding of heavy artillery fire and rapid rat-a-tat of gunshots could be heard in a video of Goma airport, posted on social media and verified by Reuters, that showed unidentified armed men running on airport grounds.

What to know about Trump's first executive actions on climate and environment
President Trump's first week in office included a flurry of executive orders with implications for Earth's climate and environment. While former President Joe Biden made climate change a hallmark of his administration and some of his policies remain, at least for now, Trump is quickly unraveling that. Experts say Trump's moves to step away from global climate action, ramp up domestic oil and gas production and remove incentives for electric vehicles are worrisome as the planet continues to heat up.

After whirlwind gains, Sudanese military leaders hail 'turning point'
After a week of whirlwind gains for the Sudanese army and allies in the capital Khartoum, leaders hailed a turning point in the civil war, speaking to reporters from inside the army's main headquarters that had been besieged since April 2023. The recapture of the al-Jaili refinery in northern Bahri last week, along with swathes of the city across the Nile from Khartoum, set the stage for the breaking the siege of the army General Command on Friday, and for the army to finally solidify positive momentum in the almost two-year war with the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces. Civilians could be seen by a Reuters witness cheering in the streets in Bahri and elsewhere, while soldiers surveyed the horizon from blown out windows at the central Khartoum base and celebrated as they roamed its grounds, at peace after a lengthy RSF onslaught.
