U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon arrived in Congo's capital far to the west for a two-day visit expected to take him to Goma, where a new U.N. military brigade is being formed to attack rebel groups and bring stability to the mineral-rich region.(AP/Alain Wandimoyi) Congo fighting: In this Tuesday, May 21, 2013 photo, a woman carries two young children along with her belongings as she walks to flee fighting between M23 rebels and government soldiers, near Goma, Congo.
