UN-brokered ceasefire The Six-Day War (French: Guerre des Six Jours) was a series of armed confrontations between Ugandan and Rwandan forces around the city of Kisangani in the Democratic Republic of the Congo from 5 to 10 June 2000.

Kisangani was also a scene of violence between Rwandan and Ugandan troops in August 1999 and 5 May 2000.

However, the conflicts of June 2000 were the most lethal and seriously damaged a large part of the city, with more than 6,600 rounds fired.
