TITLE OF THE ARTICLE: Faces of war: Children in Congo hospital <http://www.cnn.com/2008/WORLD/africa/11/03/congo.fighting.ap/index.html>
The article is a recent news that was updated on November 3, 2008 and it's about Congoleses' lives during the war in Congo. It tells us what conditions the children and the people are in and serious problems the people are facing.
According to U.N., rebels burned three refugee camps and making the frightened people run away. Hundreds of Congoleses are wounded and they are in the hospital of Congo, where there are no more medical supplies and clear water. So, the U.N. peacekeepers brought in 12 vehicles, carrying medical supplies and tablets to clear the water. The people in the refugees have been starving for days. But the U.N. kept on bringing medical supplies and not food that people desperately needed and wanted as they were afraid of diseases like cholera.
This article is news worthy as it happened just one week ago and I think it's still like what I wrote above as the war can't just suddenly get all better and nice. Also, you can see the fear of the children when you read the article as they had nothing to do with the war but they are the ones who are hurt. This kind of events were happening every places where there was war going on.

Hey,At 40 seconds the vehicle is getting ready to move over into the emergency lane, the police fire their 1st shot and the driver gets a fright and swerves, he then slows down even more and slowly the emergency lane becomes smaller and then the police open fire faster and he freaks out and hits the pavement. This is not criminal behaviour especially if it was a bunch of criminals sitting in the car with a murderer, why slow down when cops open fire on you if you are wanted for murder ? What would you do if you got shot at by the police while you are driving down the highway late at night and you are completely innocent ?Thank you so much!!
