A fighter jet of the Democratic Republic of Congo's military violated Rwandan airspace on Monday, Rwanda's government said, calling the incident an act of provocation amid efforts to de-escalate tensions between the two neighbours.
Congo and Rwanda have been at odds since M23 rebels stepped up offensives in east Congo this year.
Authorities in Congo have long accused Rwanda of backing the Tutsi-led group, which launched its third offensive this year on Oct. 20 in North Kivu province. They expelled the Rwandan ambassador days later in retaliation for this alleged support.
