Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 75213, member: 636"] Congo's military and M23 rebels are blaming each other for new fighting that popped up right before everyone's supposed to sign a peace deal in Washington. The army said Rwandan troops and M23 hit their spots in South Kivu, calling it a straight-up violation of the ceasefire that America and Qatar helped set up. M23 fired back, saying Congo actually started it with air strikes and ground attacks while pretending to want peace. The whole thing is going down just before a big regional peace meeting meant to chill out tensions in eastern Congo, where over a million people got displaced this year. Congo keeps saying Rwanda backs M23 with weapons and soldiers, but Rwanda denies it, and M23 claims they're just protecting Tutsi communities from militias. [/QUOTE]
