Stray bullet kills DRC protester in anti-UN rally, police say | United Nations News

Police in the city of Butembo in the eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) have said a “stray bullet” killed a demonstrator in a protest against perceived failure by the United Nations’ peacekeeping mission in the region to stem massacres of civilians by armed groups. “Stones were thrown when police moved in to remove a barricade. Unfortunately, a demonstrator was hit by a stray bullet and died,” Jean-Paul Ngoma, local police chief, said on Friday. He did not say who fired the round. Leon Tsongo, member of a campaign group called Parlement Debout (“Parliament, Rise”), said “the policeman who shot our comrade” was just six metres (20 feet) away.

60 arrested in DRC as protesters demand withdrawal of UN forces

AT LEAST 60 people have been arrested in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) after days of protests demanding the United Nations leave the country for its failure to stop jihadist violence in the region. Hundreds of young people have blocked roads during demonstrations that have taken place in a number of cities in eastern DRC, including Beni, where police opened fire to disperse crowds on Thursday. On Thursday evening, Beni police spokesman Nasson Murara said officers had cleared the barricades and made about 60 arrests. “Young people have barricaded almost all the roads to ask the UN mission to leave this region plagued by massacre,” Beni Mayor Modeste Buhindo Bakwanamaha said.

Police fire shots to disperse anti-UN protest in easter

By Reuters• 8 April 2021 Caption epa08891327 (18/39) An aerial photo taken with a drone shows the trade hub of Mambasa, in the Ituri Rainforest, an area of vast natural biodiversity and resources, Democratic Republic of the Congo, 19 October 2020. Mambasa lies on the road leading out from the rainforest towards Uganda, so it is a major way station for illegal animal trafficking, unregulated deforestation, and mining sites. A distinct risk for zoonotic spillover of viruses exists in a setting with exceptional governance challenges. Because economic forces and local governments are incentivized to collaborate, these factors have enabled a precarious situation where conservation is a losing battle and Congo s biodiversity posits a distinct likelihood for a new virus to jump from an animal to a human population.

Police fire shots to disperse anti-U N protest in eastern Congo

(Corrects quote in paragraph 10 and number of MONUSCO personnel in paragraph 11) BENI, Democratic Republic of Congo (Reuters) - Congolese police fired live rounds on Thursday to disperse protesters demanding the departure of the United Nations peacekeeping mission from the city of Beni, its mayor and witnesses said. Hundreds of youths have been protesting in several cities in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo since Monday, angry that the U.N. mission, known as MONUSCO, has failed to prevent a wave of civilian killings by armed groups. So far this year around 330 people have been killed in the violence, an unresolved legacy of a civil war that officially ended in 2003, according to the Kivu Security Tracker, which maps unrest in the region.
