President Évariste Ndayishimiye says there's "credible intelligence" that Rwanda plans to attack Burundi.

The two countries are on opposite sides in the war in their giant neighbour, DR Congo.

At least 17 soldiers from Malawi and South Africa have been killed in DR Congo.

The M23 rebel group has seized large parts of the mineral-rich eastern DR Congo this year.
