New Fighting After DRC Rejects Rebel Demand for Talks -- Voice of America
New fighting has broken out near the Congolese city of Goma, after the Democratic Republic of Congo government dismissed a demand for peace talks from rebel group M23.
Heavy weapons fire was reported Monday on the outskirts of Goma.
An M23 spokesman, Vianney Kazarama said that the rebel group controls the northeastern part of Goma. The city is the capital of Congo's North Kivu province.
There also are reports of firing along the DRC's border with Rwanda. The DRC has accused Rwanda of supporting M23, which Rwanda repeatedly has denied.
