"The M23 appears to have taken control of a significant portion of the city following intense fighting with the Congolese army," The United Nation’s Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) stated Wednesday, adding, "Reports have emerged of looting of shops, offices, and warehouses belonging to humanitarian organizations, while heavy gunfire and explosions have been heard in various parts of the city."
OCHA added "Local sources believe the civilian casualties are significant, although [an] assessment is yet to be conducted." Thirteen South African peacekeeping troops have been killed over the past week.
