Un nouveau groupe armé, "Debout Katanga pour la libération du Congo", est apparu dans la région du Katanga en RDC au cours des deux dernières semaines, suscitant l'inquiétude des autorités. Le groupe, distinct des milices Bakata-Katanga, est signalé dans le territoire de Mitwaba, Haut-Katanga. Il a revendiqué une attaque contre le parc national de l'Upemba, tuant au moins sept écogardes, et a brièvement occupé la localité de Nkonga. Le groupe justifie ses actions par la mauvaise gouvernance des autorités de Kinshasa et a des revendications nationales. L'armée congolaise est désormais mobilisée dans la zone pour contrer cette nouvelle menace.
