t contacted by telephone in Kisangani reported that all appeared calm in the city itself. The report of fighting at the airport at Kisangani, on the Congo River in the north over 1,500 km (900 miles) upstream from Kinshasa, follows an army revolt in the eastern towns of Goma and Bukavu in the former Zaire. „The airport at Kisangani is closed. According to what we know, there is fighting there. The situation is deteriorating,“ the U.N. source told Reuters. The airport is about 18 km (12 miles) east of the city and a resident in the city centre told Reuters by telephone: „It‘s calm here. Everything is fine. There is no problem. We have not heard firing.“ President Laurent Kabila‘s government has blamed the revolt on ethnic Tutsi Banyamulenge soldiers and Rwandan troops whom Kabila ordered to leave the country last week. Rwanda denies any involvement.
