    Uruguayan peacekeeper killed in DRC as rebels seize Goma

    Uruguayan Sergeant Adrián Fernández has been wounded and is in a “critical” condition

    Various UN peacekeeping troops were killed this weekend in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) as the rebel M23 made territorial gains. One Uruguayan was among the dead and another was reported stable, albeit in a critical condition. Three others were wounded. In addition to the Uruguayan casualty, the UN troops also confirmed the killing of two South African soldiers. At least 13 peacekeepers fell last week.
