In Goma

Noah talks with NPR's Jennifer Ludden about conditions in the eastern Zairean city of Goma, recently captured by Zairean Tutsi rebels. The rebels escorted foreign journalists into the city today. The city is for the most part calm, though reporters were only allowed to see certain areas. Goma is the site of camps housing hundreds of thousands of Rwandan Hutu refugees; the battle for the city left the refugees cut off from food and medicine.
