Congolese civilians flee refugee camps as Rwanda-backed M23 controls Goma

As the Rwanda-backed M23 group controls most of Goma in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo, thousands of people who had settled in camps for internally displaced people on the outskirts of the city say they have no choice but to head back home.

"We carry our burdens on our backs, living in constant fear, without peace," says one woman.
