Taifa la Rwanda limeshutumu Jamhuri ya Kidemokrasia ya Kongo (DRC) na Burundi kwa kukiuka Makubaliano ya Washington, mkataba wa kusitisha mapigano uliosainiwa wiki iliyopita chini ya uratibu wa Rais Donald Trump.
Kigali inadai kuwa majeshi ya Kongo na Burundi, yakisaidiwa na wanamgambo washirika, yalifanya mashambulizi ya kuvuka mpaka katika eneo la South Kivu, na kulazimisha waasi wa M23 kujibu mashambulizi hayo.
Mapigano hayo yamesababisha zaidi ya raia 1,000 kukimbilia Rwanda, hususan katika Mkoa wa Magharibi, ambapo wanahifadhiwa katika Kambi ya Mpito ya Nyarushishi.
Rwanda pia inadai Burundi imetuma maelfu ya wanajeshi kusaidia operesheni za Kongo, hali inayoongeza mvutano.
Shutuma hizi zimeibuka siku chache tu baada ya kusainiwa kwa mkataba wa amani, na zimeibua mashaka kuhusu uimara wake huku kukiwa na hofu kwamba mapigano mapya yanaweza kuyumbisha tena eneo la Maziwa Makuu.
According to military and security sources, the militia's fighters entered the strategic border city of Uvira at the gates of Burundi late Tuesday, after the United States and European powers urged the M23 to "immediately halt" its offensive and for Rwanda to pull its troops out of the eastern DRC.
As the M23 appeared set to seize the last major settlement in South Kivu province it had yet to capture, scores of Congolese soldiers mingled among the civilians fleeing to Burundi, which has sent troops to help the DRC fight the Kigali-backed M23, according to military sources.
