People's stories from DR Congo
Josphine Margarita,"I am 44 years old and have come to Kibati from Kibumba - I came last Monday from Kibumba because fighting was getting very bad between Congolese government soldiers and the rebels. We were all very scared."
Alfonsonia Ruganu, "This is my youngest child, she is called Elienne. I was very scared, scared that something bad would happen to my family. There was a lot of shooting nearby and we had to flee with nothing."
Thereas Nyierabosa, "For a week the fighting had got closer and closer and it
became very dangerous - many people were killed and wounded. My son paid for me to get a motor bike taxi to come to Kibati - I don't think could have walked here because I am too old. "
Virmilia Christine, "I had to run with my four children and my husband when fighting broke out in the town between rebels and government soldiers - I was very very scared and we ran very quickly because I really thought my children might die."
