M23 fighters allied with Rwandan troops on Sunday entered the centre of Bukavu, another key city in eastern DR Congo. Kinshasa has accused Rwanda of seizing land in the area for mining and agricultural purposes. Rwanda says it has taken defensive measures against ethnic Hutu militias such as the FDLR in the region – a claim that is not credible, according to Thierry Vircoulon, Associate Researcher at IFRI's Africa Centre.
