Tens of thousands of people tried to escape the major city in the Democratic Republic of Congo after authorities issued an evacuation order warning that Mount Nyiragongo could erupt again. This volcano is said to be very powerful as more than 170 children are still feared missing and UNICEF officials said they were organising transit centres to help unaccompanied children in the wake of the disaster.
