The fighting in the area, close to the city of Goma, comes a day after Rwanda’s army said rocket shelling from Congolese armed forces had struck areas inside Rwandan territory, injuring civilians, and called for an investigation into the incident.
The government of the Democratic Republic of Congo has yet to respond to the statement but let’s hope that this doesn’t turn into another conflict.
