Democratic Republic of Congo signs peace deal with M23 insurgents

The Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) has signed a peace deal with the M23 rebels it had been fighting until they laid down their arms last month, Kenya's presidential spokesman said on his official Twitter account on Thursday.

"Democratic Republic of Congo govt, M23 sign peace agreement in Nairobi," Manoah Esipisu wrote on his account.

The M23 are insurgents who have battled Congo's government in its mineral-rich eastern regions for more than two decades.
