UGANDAN and Rwandan troops resumed fighting in Kinsangani in northeastern Democratic Republic of Congo early on Wednesday. Sporadic gunfire was heard in the centre of the town at about 5am, less than 24-hours after the United Nations Observation Mission to the DRC announced it has brokered a ceasefire in the town. Early skirmishes were followed several hours later by heavy artillery, mortar, and automatic weapon fire. Fighting centred around the Tshopo bridge in the northwest of Kisangani, from where Ugandan troops had advanced into the town, according to Rwandan military sources.
