We had a slightly unsettled night, with a lot of sporadic shooting in Goma, where the situation is quite tense. Right now, things are quite calm. The fighting has spread north, towards Rutshuru. We've heard that the town of Rubare, about 10kms north of Rumangabo, has now been taken by the rebels. We'll keep you posted on developments. many thanks for all your messages of support.

My thoughts are with you all. I have donated but wish I could give more. Can anyone on this board suggest who I should contact in my goverment to express my concerns? I have never really done such a thing. I am upset this is not getting more news coverage here in the US. My heart breaks reading about what is happening. My thoughts are with you all.
