Rwandan peacekeepers in tense patrol north of the capital

- (25 Jan 2014) Rwandan peacekeepers patrolled hilly and forested terrain north of the capital in the Central African Republic on Friday.
Their mission was to intercept and disarm militants from both sides of the sectarian conflict that is paralysing the country, one of the poorest in the world.
As they patrolled along trails past farming communities, soldiers surprised villagers out foraging for mushrooms in the hills.
The soldiers moved in to surround houses that local informants had led them to believe sheltered fighters from the mostly-Muslim Seleka militia.
The men they intercepted proved to be Christian militia men.
One assault rifle and a few homemade guns were seized and the disarmed men were set free.
The Rwandan contingent, sent from a country with its own legacy of genocide, is expected to reach a full strength of 850 men.
Thousands of French and African peacekeepers have been trying to calm a political crisis that has ignited unprecedented tit-for-tat killings by armed Christian and Muslim movements.
The Rwandan peacekeepers are part of a 4,600-member strong African force trying to stabilise the beleaguered country, which covers roughly the same area as France.
More than 1-thousand people died during several days of sectarian fighting sparked by an attempted coup by Christian fighters in December, and UN officials have warned the lingering anarchy could escalate into genocide.
Hundreds more have been slain in recent weeks by marauding gangs wielding machetes, clubs and other weapons.
The attempted coup was intended to remove leader Michel Djotodia, brought to power by the predominantly Muslim rebel group, the Seleka, who overthrew the government in March 2013.
Djotodia stepped aside two weeks ago and interim President Catherine Samba-Panza is now tasked with organising elections later this year.

1) That lady wasn't speaking KinyaRwanda.
2) They don't grow Cassava in Musanze
3) There are no plain landscape in the northern Rwanda.
Probably, that place might be in North Kivu, DRC.
