Congo rebels make roadblock out of bodies
(Agencies)
Updated: 2008-11-13 11:48  Refugees walk past the body of a Congolese government soldier lying on the road at the front line near Kibati, north of Goma in eastern Congo November 12, 2008. Two soldiers, both shot through the head, were killed in a sharp exchange of artillery, mortar, rocket and machinegun fire late on Tuesday a few kilometres from a refugee camp at Kibati sheltering 80,000 civilians displaced by violence. This is the tense front line in the simmering war in Democratic Republic of Congo's North Kivu province, where Tutsi rebels and government troops face each other just 200 metres apart from positions in the verdant bush and fields.
