Former Congolese President Joseph Kabila has launched a new political-military coalition to replace the AFC-M23 alliance fighting government forces in ​eastern Congo, taking a more direct role in an ‌insurgency he had previously stopped short of openly backing.

Congolese authorities have for months accused ​Kabila of supporting AFC/M23, which captured vast territories in eastern Congo during ​an offensive last year, but the former president had denied involvement.

In a speech on Friday, Kabila accused the government of corruption, poor governance and military setbacks ​in eastern Congo, and criticised its minerals deal with the United ​States.
