"The Cabinda Armed Forces (FAC) report that, in clashes with Angolan soldiers in the Belize region, in the Cabindan village of Tundu Maselese, on the border with the Democratic Republic of Congo [DRCongo], 12 deaths were recorded", states the note sent to Lusa.
The same source revealed that today, at 03:20, a FAC special operations command unit "carried out an attack against a platoon of the Angolan Armed Forces" in that village in the Belize region and that, during the course of its action, "12 Angolan soldiers died and four were seriously injured".
In the statement, FLEC-FLAC also affirmed that the FAC will intensify the attacks "against Angolan soldiers in the entire territory of Cabinda".
In the document, signed by Lieutenant General João Cruz Mavinga Lúcife, head of the FAC Special Forces, it is assured that the Angolan side "is solely responsible for the worsening of the conflict" in that region.
FLEC has for several years been fighting for the independence of the territory, from which a large part of Angolan oil originates, claiming that the enclave was a Portuguese protectorate - as established in the Treaty of Simulambuco, signed in 1885 - and not an integral part of Angolan territory.
The Angolan Government normally refuses to recognise the existence of soldiers killed as a result of guerrilla actions by the separatists, or any situation of instability in that province in northern Angola, always emphasising the unity of the territory.
