Angola Joins the Battle!

After yet another ceasefire between the DRC government and the M23 rebels failed, Angola has announced their intent to send troops to join the conflict. Angola has previously played a central role in attempted peace treaties between the government, the M23 rebels, and their alleged backers, Rwanda. Several ceasefires have been established, and several peace accords signed, all of which have ultimately failed to end the conflict. The deployment is a very big change of policy.
