But first, is this the end of M23 movement in the Democratic Republic of Congo? Heavyfighting is taking place in the east of the country as government soldiers backed by the UnitedNations try to clear the last areas held by the rebels close to the border with Rwanda andUganda. There had been talk of a cease-fire of the weekend which didn't happen. Now eachside is shelling the other. And civilians caught up in the fight are fleeing to Uganda. Earliertoday our reporter Acnitious Behizi was on the border with Uganda talking to refugees as theshelling continued. "Their mood is very tense. People are really broken down. They have beenin this kind of torsion of life in a long time. I think actually another disaster is likely to happen.You can hear the shooting now. That's heavy. People are crying. People are suffering. Peopledon't have what to eat. I think another disaster might come up in the near future becauseeven if Congo settles, people have not been cultivating. They don't have food. They havenbeen running in and out. So they have no time to settle. Some of them, as I've been told，theyhave been stolen; their cars have been stolen. They think even if Congo settles in the nearfuture, their problems will hang here." The civilian head of the M23 is in Uganda for talks.He told the BBC the rebels were responding to shelling from the government troops.
