A military court in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) has sentenced 66 soldiers to death for mutiny, disobeying orders, and cowardice in the face of the enemy. The soldiers were convicted for abandoning their frontline positions and fleeing during clashes with rebel fighters. This is part of a broader trend where over 500 soldiers have been convicted since 2025, including 381 sentenced to death, as the Congolese military seeks to restore discipline.
