Kenya’s President Uhuru Kenyatta on Wednesday called for the immediate deployment of a new regional military force to try to stop rebel violence in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo.

The seven countries of the East African Community , which Congo joined this year, agreed in April to set up a joint force but had not specified when it might be deployed.

His call comes against the backdrop of a major offensive in eastern Congo by the M23 rebel group, which on Monday seized a strategic town on the Ugandan border. The precise composition of the EAC force, including whether it would include Rwandan soldiers, has not been announced.
