Last night General Nkunda’s men destroyed all communication antennas for radios and mobile phones in the Rutshuru and Bunagana area. They also destroyed the hydro-electric station at Rutshuru, taking out the electricity. The towns of Kiwanja and Rutshuru are now cut off from the outside world.

After these acts of sabotage they moved their position to Bikenge and Runyoni.

Things here are tense. I will be taking the next vehicle to Goma.
