Congo Army Battles M23 Rebels Near Goma Aug 26th 2013, 23:30, by webdesk@voanews.com (Reuters) Congo's army said it clashed Monday with eastern rebels, ending a brief lull in days of fighting that has killed and wounded dozens.

Ovarian cancer is responsible for nearly two percent of all cancers diagnosed globally each year, according to the World Cancer Research Fund International.

Gulf Islamists Irked as Monarchs Back Egypt's Generals Aug 26th 2013, 20:59, by webdesk@voanews.com (Reuters) A scuffle broke the reflective atmosphere of Friday prayers in Riyadh's al-Ferdous mosque after the imam deplored the recent bloody crackdown on Muslim Brotherhood protesters by the military in nearby Egypt. The fight between members of the congregation, recorded on a widely circulated YouTube clip and reported by the daily al-Hayat newspaper, demonstrated how high feelings are running in the devoutly Muslim kingdom.
