Rebels from the Rwandan-backed M23 group have taken a second major city in the eastern region of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, which borders Rwanda. Congolese analyst Kambale Musavuli reports on the violence, emphasizing its connection to the DRC's mineral resources, which are key to the development of high-tech goods. This battle is coming out of a context: the control of Congo's vast mineral wealth," says Musavuli.
