Zaire

The BBC's Martin Dawes reports from Bukavu, Zaire, on recent fighting that threatens to touch off another humanitarian crisis in central Africa. More than two hundred thousand Hutu refugees have fled their camps in eastern Zaire as the Zairean army battles Zairean Tutsi rebels. The United Nations has evacuated aid workers from the area, and is appealing for an end to the clashes.
