Supply chain impact

No commodities or chokepoints are directly mapped to this event; second-order effects depend on how the situation escalates and whether fighting spreads to areas with greater economic significance or transport infrastructure.

• Track whether conflict affects broader Sud-Kivu provincial stability or draws in additional armed groups
• Watch for independent media confirmation of the reported clashes and any casualty assessments
