Renewed gunfire

Just as I was about to post that the city seemed calm and the candidates had excepted last nights results (Kabila: 44%, Bemba: 20%) renewed fighting broke out. Since 2:30pm Kabila and Bemba forces have been exchanging gun and tank fire. When Kabila fired on Bemba's house an envoy of foreign diplomats was at Bemba's for negotiations. They have since been traped there. UN tanks have passed by our building (as we live down the street from Bemba and the trapped ambassadors) and the gunfire has slowed. Nonetheless, it continues. Above is a picture from a Reuters news article. Colleagues live in the pinkish building in the lower right hand corner and we live not far from there, in the direction of the black smoke which was coming from Bemba's military compound. UN tanks have tanks have just parked in front of our building. Adrian is at the German Embassy and I home. Unfortunately, both Kabila and Bemba's houses is located between the German Embassy and our building.
