JOHANNESBURG (Reuters) - Angola has authorized a Chinese ship carrying arms that were destined for Zimbabwe to offload goods, Angola's state-run news agency ANGOP said on Friday.

The agency said it learned from a government note that the "warlike material" bound for Zimbabwe was not authorized and "shall not be unloaded in the national territory". China said the ship would head home.
