Residents fend for themselves as conflict intensifies in Goma, DRC

Residents of Goma are fleeing their city, the largest in eastern DRC, as Rwandan-backed M23 rebels claim to have gained control there. Civilians are finding themselves in harm's way as fighting escalates with the Congolese government forces trying to stop further advancement of the M23 into Goma and further onto Kinshasha, Eastern DRC's capital. VOA's Paul Ndiho spoke with Passy Mubalama, a human rights activist based in Goma, who described the unfolding situation.
