The first batch of Kenya Defence Forces deployed to the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) has left the country. The contingent is part of a joint regional operation and left aboard two Spartan aircraft for Goma, DRC on Saturday.
They were flagged off by Chief of Defence Forces Gen Robert Kibochi at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA), and received after a two-hour flight by the Armed Forces of the Democratic Republic of Congo.
