A new war in Central Africa is brewing. The Rwanda supported M23 movement continues taking ground with first hand witnesses stating that the Rwandese military is in fact active in Congo - backed up by a The Guardian report using satellite imagery on the many fresh graves in Rwanda's military cemeteries. Today Uganda's Chief of Staff is threatening to enter Congo.
On the Congolese side there are contingents of Burundian, Tanzanian, Malawian and South African soldiers under the MONUSCO UN label in the Kivu area. Yesterday reports came in that Burundian forces had entered the South Kivu border area to halt the M23 advance on their own but were beaten back.
