M23 rebels are marching across eastern DRC: the interests driving players in the conflict
M23’s advances highlight Rwanda’s role in the Democratic Republic of Congo, and the risk of an escalating regionalised conflict.
My latest for @africa.theconversation.com on the worrying developments in Eastern DRC: coup rumours in Kinshasa, which is increasingly losing control; and Rwanda - & potentially Uganda -further expanding. International pressure key to avoid further escalation theconversation.com/m23-rebels-a...

Map showing the number of times a location has burned in SoCal and which kind of fire it was: one burning under Santa Ana winds, or one that was a summer, fuel-driven fire without Santa Ana winds. Malibu area had burned at least 8 times from 1900-2017, and has burned twice now since. Image from Kolden and Abatzoglou (2018): https://www.mdpi.com/2571-6255/1/2/19
Here's the reality about the #LAFires this week: this isn't the first time ANY of these places have burned. Not even close. In 2018, we mapped CA fire history to look at fire frequency across SoCal. Santa Monica Mtns area burns more than anywhere else -- up to once per decade in a given spot. 🧵
