Work would continue throughout the night - depending on the scheduled arrival of representatives from the rebel Mouvement de liberation congolais (MLC) and Wamba’s RCD-ML group, diplomatic sources told IRIN on Tuesday. Earlier reported meetings of the JMC in Lusaka on Sunday and Monday were political consultations rather than military meetings, IRIN was told.
