Can the latest flare-up of violence in DR Congo undermine truce efforts? | Inside Story

For more than 30 years, armed groups have been fighting to gain control of the mineral-rich east of the Democratic Republic of Congo.
The violence has caused one of the worst humanitarian and displacement crises in the world.
One of the latest attacks was carried out by the Cooperative for the Development of the Congo.
It says it aims to protect the Lendu community
The violence follows an earlier assault by the Convention for the Popular Revolution, which is fighting for the rival Hema ethnic group.
They pose a challenge for President Felix Tshisekedi - whose government is engaged in talks with the Rwanda-backed M23 fighters.
So, can these attacks undermine the negotiations?
And can peace be established in this restive region of the DRC?
