CWN Editor's Note: Father Marcelo Oliveira, a Portuguese Comboni missionary, described the brutality and chaos in Goma, Democratic Republic of the Congo, following the storming of the city by rebels of the March 23 Movement, or M23.
The priest said that damage to the airport makes it impossible for humanitarian aid to reach Goma, the capital of North Kivu province (map).
