The United Nations Security Council is holding a meeting in New York on Tuesday, September 29, to examine the situation in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC).
Fighting between government forces and the M23 rebel group continues in the eastern part of the country, despite a series of previously signed peace agreements.
The discussions are expected to focus on monitoring the ceasefire, the escalating tensions between the DRC and Rwanda, as well as the most severe Ebola epidemic ever recorded in the country.
