This UNOSAT map provides and overview of the satellite-detected fire damage to buildings (tent shelters) in the Goz Amer refugee camp, following an accidental fire.
Rebel troops entered N'Djamena on 2 February 2008, briefly taking a large part of the city and encircling the Presidential palace. The three-day fighting killed an estimated 700 people, mostly civilians, and forced up to 30 000 people to cross into neighbouring Cameroon.
