STORYLINE:
For several weeks, residents of Sake, a city in the eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), have been living under the intensive exchange of heavy weapons fire as fighting flared up between government troops and March 23 Movement (M23) rebels, Xinhua correspondents observed on the ground.
Located about 20 km from Goma, the capital of North Kivu province, much of which is occupied by the M23, Sake City is considered to be the last barrier for Goma, which was taken by M23 rebels in late 2012.
