DRCONGO-UNREST-UN-GOMA

A young boy stands atop Mount Goma overlooking the capital of North Kivu province in the east of the Democratic Republic of the Congo on August 1, 2013. The city remained calm today, when an ultimatum issued by the United Nations calling on all armed civilians in Goma and its outskirts to hand themselves in to a disarmament programme. A deadline set by UN peacekeepers for rebels in the volatile eastern Democratic Republic of Congo to lay down their weapons passed on Thursday, with the fighters facing force if they fail to disarm. The M23 rebel group, which launched a fresh offensive against the Congolese army outside the flashpoint city of Goma on July 14, on Wednesday dismissed the ultimatum as irrelevant.
