Fighters from the M23 rebel group advanced in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo on Wednesday and were locked in heavy fighting with the army outside the region’s largest military base, security sources and the local park director said.

The M23 used the Rumangabo base as its headquarters during a 2012-2013 insurgency.

Two security sources, who asked not to be named, said the rebels had surrounded the base by the evening. Reuters could not immediately confirm this independently. During that conflict, the M23 briefly captured eastern Congo’s main city of Goma, home to more than 1 million people.An army spokesperson could not be immediately reached for comment.In a statement earlier on Wednesday, Congo’s army said about 20 shells and bombs had exploded on Tuesday and Wednesday and that Congolese forces were battling M23 rebels around Kibumba, about 20 km northeast of Goma.
