A parliament brawl broke out in the Democratic Republic of Congo Monday with ministers overturning desks and throwing chairs after President Felix Tshisekedi moved to scrap the ruling coalition.
Tshisekedi announced on Sunday he planned to form a new coalition, in which ministers loyal to his predecessor Joseph Kabila command more than 300 seats in the 500-member parliament.
He said he may have to dissolve parliament and hold a fresh election if he could not form a new coalition.
\"The present majority has crumbled and a new majority is required,\" he said, adding that if he failed to form a new coalition, fresh elections would be the solution \"using the constitutional prerogatives that have been invested in me to come back to you, a sovereign people, and ask for a majority\".
In 2019 Tshisekedi took over from Joseph Kabila, who was in office for 18 years. But he need to forge a coalition with the pro-Kabila FCC, which has prevented much-needed reform.
In October, Tshisekedi revealed there had been discord over major issues with the FCC-dominated government.
These included national security, the management of state assets, the independence of the judiciary and the organisation of elections.
Parliament said the plenary session had been deferred to another date, denouncing the \"destruction\" of furniture and \"the presence of armed bodyguards inside the assembly.\"
Tshisekedi meanwhile held emergency talks with pro-Kabila Prime Minister Sylvestre Ilunga on Monday afternoon.
The FCC said on Monday that Tshisekedi's declaration was \"a flagrant and intentional breach of the constitution\".
It said it would ask Kabila to give \"his version of events\", and asked the \"people to remain mobilised against an attempt to hijack its will freely expressed at the ballot box\".
Last week, the FCC accused Tshisekedi supporters of trying to bribe deputies to switch parties. The president's supporters then sought the resignation of the pro-Kabila speaker of the lower house.
The growing tensions have sparked international alarm with the African Union calling on the country's leaders to \"work resolutely and sincerely for national harmony and to preserve peace and stability\".

Manchester United star Paul Pogba is \"unhappy\" at Manchester United and should leave in the next transfer window, his agent Mino Raiola said in an interview with Italian media.
The French midfielder of Guinean descent was at one point the world's most expensive player.
Raiola said the World Cup-winning France midfielder, 27, needs a \"change of scene\" after struggling to establish himself under United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
\"Paul's unhappy at Manchester United, he can't express himself any more as he would like to and as we expect of him,\" Raiola told Italian newspaper Tuttosport.
He has to change teams, he needs a change of scene. His contract is up in a year-and-a-half, in the summer of 2022, but I think the best solution for all sides is a transfer in the next window.\"
Pogba returned from a spell at Juventus for a then world-record fee of $118 million in 2016.
\"The club... knows it risks losing him for nothing, as at the moment the player has no intention of extending his contract,\" Raiola said.
It is not known where he will go next but Pogba has also expressed his desire to play for Real Madrid one day, particularly if that means playing under the orders of Zinedine Zidane.
The midfielder's superb strike in Saturday's 3-1 win over West Ham was his first goal in eight Premier League appearances this season.
