The Angolan government is raising concerns after violence resumed in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo just as Luanda was pushing for a longer-term ceasefire after a lull in fighting over the past one month.
But fighting erupted in Kalembe town in Walikale territory of North Kivu Province, where M23 rebels clashed with Congolese forces (Fardc) on Monday. The new clashes began just a day after M23 took control of the town and Fardc beat them back and recaptured it.
