Having taken control of key parts of #Goma (perhaps still a little early to talk in absolute terms), M23 and allies are now progressing in South Kivu, reducing distance to #Kavumu airport where important contingents of FARDC and Burundian forces have been concentrating recently.

The risk of urban fighting in #Goma that many were afraid of is at least partly materialising, notably downtown around Quartier Volcans (near Rwanda border) and Himbi (further west in town. Sustained SALW fire in various other locations. Several instances of looting too.

This morning, #Goma emerges in limbo with an unclear, highly dynamic situation. A wealth of footage circulates (mostly unverified), showing either M23 and Rwandan forces on one side, and FARDC and wazalendo on the other. Skirmishes are underway in various parts of town.

The most recent #M23 (AFC) communiqué calls on #Congo troops to lay down arms within 48h and for UN troops to take neutral stance. Sources on all sides say move onto #Goma within the next 2 days is among possible scenarios. Security Council has called emergency meeting for Monday.

The #M23/RDF have now taken Sake, a strategic small town just 25 kms from Goma. Experts have dismissed Goma as a potential target so far, but this conflict has taken proportions no one foresaw even 6 months ago. #DRC
The #M23 rebels and Rwandan forces took Minova today, a key town 40 kilometers of Goma. Until now, it was assumed #Rwanda would stay clear of Goma: taking the city in 2012 had been a major strategic mistake, leading to the rebellion's demise. This may no longer be true. #DRCconflict

Incredible moment: Half the chamber is now standing up, and the opposition parties are chanting the names of every conservative party member who is not in the chamber (which is everyone but one), demanding they return to vote on the impeachment bill.

Wow, only one conservative lawmaker is in the chamber: Ahn Cheol-soo. Impeachment looks to be headed for failure by boycott.

It took only ~2.5 hrs for the National Assembly to gather a majority of members (190 of 300) and generate a unanimous vote (190 of 190) to vote down the emergency martial law. The law says the president "shall comply" with parliament's vote, but doesn't specify a time frame.

BREAKING: The South Korean National Assembly could vote to revoke the martial law with a majority vote of its 300 lawmakers, and 190 lawmakers just voted to lift the martial law. Now the question is whether Yoon will actually lift it, as required by law.

Enjoyed giving our Y12s a lecture on 'What's the point of school?' today.
We reviewed 6 philosophical positions about the point of school, took an initial poll of their positions, then I explained why I was an essentialist (although with progressive aims), before we took another final vote.
