STORYLINE
Government soldiers in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) advanced toward rebel lines on Saturday in renewed fighting that threatens a tenuous ceasefire around the eastern provincial capital Goma.
Fighting broke out on Friday near Kibati, about six miles (10 kilometres) north of Goma.
By Saturday morning, the army had moved more than half a mile (at least one kilometre) north into a no man's land left unpatrolled since the rebels called a cease-fire 10 days ago after routing the army.
Half the houses in Kibati - a village flooded last week by more than 50-thousand civilians fleeing the fighting - appeared deserted as thousands of people milled around a camp for internally displaced people in the area.
Thousands of others were on the move again on Saturday.
Some have been on the run for weeks, hefting bundles of belongings, children and goats as they try to keep ahead of the violence.
In the area surrounding the town of Kiwanja, 80 kilometres (50 miles) east of Goma - where about 45-thousand people took refuge - hundreds of civilians were on the move.
The rebels declared the cease-fire just as they reached the gates of the city.
