    Uruguayan blue helmets bound for DRC stranded in Rwanda

    The Uruguayan government said the soldiers were in good health and awaiting clearance

    Some 200 Uruguayan peacekeeping troops intended for the United Nations (UN) mission in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) are currently stranded in Rwanda, unable to enter their country of destination, with their passage blocked by the M23 rebel group, which has effectively replaced the formal authorities.
