"Rebel forces in the Central African Republic say they have halted their offensive on the capital, Bangui, and will take part in peace talks.
The announcement from the Seleka rebels comes as the country's neighbours say they are sending in extra troops.
Gabon deployed 120 troops on Tuesday and Cameroon was expected to send a similar number.
The CAR's President, Francois Bozize, has sacked the defence minister - who is his son - and the army chief.
The dismissal of Francis Bozize and Gen Guillaume Lapo was announced on state radio. No reason was given but the president has criticised the army for failing to stop the rebels."
