The month of January was particularly characterized by a volatile security situation in the aftermath of the presidential elections, while the overall humanitarian situation remained complex and challenging: • Since October 2018, a total of 699,7481 Congolese returning from Angola have crossed the border to DRC. While the initial influx of thousand returnees per day has decreased to a daily return of hundreds of people in several areas. In Kamako in the territory of Kamonia, Kasai Province, e.g., an average of 200 persons cross the border on a daily basis. The humanitarian situation remains precarious in the areas of arrival and requires a concerted response. • Armed conflict is ongoing in Ituri province, in the northern part of Djugu territory, and characterized by activism of several militia groups and interventions by the armed forces of the DR Congo (Forces Armées de la République Démocratique du Congo, FARDC) as well as inter-community conflicts, causing the displacement of ca. 12,000 people, among those 450 school children, as reported by local authorities. Humanitarian activities, including those of the RRMP project, had to be temporarily suspended for two weeks. Despite the volatile security situation, according to local civil society reports, the population has returned to their homes in 40 out of 45 chiefdoms which were affected by the 2018 crisis. According to the latest report of the Education provincial division, school education has resumed at 124 out of the 150 schools that were destroyed between February and June 2018, even though classes have to be held in sheds, churches and residential houses. • In Tanganyika as well as Haut Katanga province, several areas of humanitarian concern, in particular with regard to population displacements and returns, remain inaccessible due to confrontations between militia groups and FARDC. • Humanitarian support was further hampered in South Kivu province due to armed violence, which led to the displacement of 10,000 individuals2. In accordance with the report of the inter-agency mission coordinated by OCHA, in the territory of Kabare, ca. 7000 people have returned since December. • Pursuant to the announcement of the final presidential election results, a wave of voluntary surrenders of militias in Kasai and Kasai Central provinces were observed. More than 500 militias laid down their arms and requested assistance as well as their integration into the armed forces. Among them, a total of 60 children have already been identified while age verification is ongoing at the different sites where the militia have been gathered. While out of those 60 children, 26 children have been placed in host families, 34 children were with their families or still in the site of identification. The Child Protection team has been looking for a transit centre to place them. • In the province of Mai-Ndombe, following the inter-ethnic violence of December 2018, a multi-sectoral needs assessment was conducted by OCHA in cooperation with UNICEF, WHO, WFP, UNHCR and several NGO partners (27 Jan. – 02 Feb.) o In terms of child protection needs, few cases of family separation have been identified but there is an urgent need to implement psychosocial support activities for children and adolescents in both communities affected by the conflict. UNICEF is currently exploring the option to select a partner, who can intervene in this volatile area. o In terms of nutrition, in Yumbi health zone of Mai-Ndombe province, identified needs include nutrition screening or survey and implementation of lifesaving nutrition approaches and 1 This figure is a compilation of data from different sources collected by UNICEF. For the areas of Kongo Central, Lualaba and Kasai provinces : OCHA / DGM Kinshasa, BATID et Programme National de l’Hygiène aux Frontières (PNHF) ; for Central Kasai: Caritas; for Kwango: DGM Kwango during a joint assessment by UNICEF FAO, AIRD/UNHCR, ALDI, RHA, ECVM et TPO, 10 - 20 November 2018 2 According to reports from OCHA and the UNICEF partner Mercy Corps DRC Situation Report January 2019 interventions such as Community Management of Acute Malnutrition (CMAM), blanket and supplementary feeding and Infant and Young Child feeding program in Emergency (IYCF-E). o With regard to children’s access to education in Yumbi health zone, the following challenges have been identified: disruption of the school calendar with more than one month of interruption; 17 schools have been destroyed (14 schools in Yumbi, 1 school in Bongende Sub division, 2 schools in Nkolo sub division); destruction of WASH infrastructures as well as didactic materials; death of 7 teachers; massive displacement of pupils and teachers and almost complete absence of school division officers. • The number of health zones in alert with regard to nutrition needs (presently at least four indicators out of threshold) has increased from 65 (SNSAP Bulletin #33 covering period from July to September 2018) to 70 (SNSAP bulletin #34 covering period from October to December 2018). The most affected provinces are Central Kasai (21 health zones out of 26), Kwango (10 health zones out of 14) and Sankuru (9 health zones out of 16). • In January, a cholera epidemic was declared in Haut Katanga province by the Ministry of Health. During the reporting period, a total of 1,833 cases were registered in the three provinces (944 cases and 26 deaths in Haut Katanga, 757 cases and 23 deaths in Haut Lomani, and 132 cases and 0 death in Lualaba). With a total of 49 deceased individuals in January, the average cholera fatality rate in the three provinces is at 2.7 per cent. Considering the total number of 2,306 cases and 68 deaths (fatality rate 2.9 per cent) since January 2018 in Haut Katanga, the 944 cases and 26 deaths in January 2019 represent a significant increase of cholera in this area. • Regarding the measles outbreak, a total of 6,839 suspect cases and 71 deaths were reported in the provinces of Haut Lomami (3,416 cases and 47 deaths), Lualaba (3,237 cases and 24 deaths), and Haut Katanga (186 cases and 0 death). The outbreak in Lualaba requires particular attention since this province has not experienced any epidemic for ten years. The health zones of Kasaji (1,377 cases and 6 deaths) and Dilolo (1,110 cases) of Lualaba province have been particularly affected. Humanitarian Leadership and Coordination • UNICEF leads five clusters in the DRC humanitarian architecture, at national level in Kinshasa and at provincial hub levels in Bukavu, Goma, Kalemie and Kananga. The clusters are Nutrition, Education, WASH, Non-Food Items and Shelter, and a Working Group on Child Protection which forms part of the Protection Cluster lead by UNHCR. As part of the Ebola response, UNICEF co-leads the commissions on communication, WASH, and psychosocial care. DRC Situation Report January 2019 • UNICEF participates in inter-cluster and inter-organizations meetings at the national and decentralized levels, and is an active member of the Humanitarian Country Team (HCT). • In Kasai and Central Kasai, the Child Protection Working Groups work in collaboration with the Provincial Government and MONUSCO to ensure a rapid and effective demobilization of children from militias. • During the reporting period, the nutrition cluster endorsed the national cluster work plan for 2019 and an operation guidance note for Infant and Young Child Feeding in Emergency (IYCF-E) in the Ebola context.

  • Democratic Republic of Congo: Cholera Outbreak in Katanga And
    Democratic Republic of Congo: Cholera outbreak in DREF Operation n° MDRCD005 GLIDE n° EP-2008-000245-COD Katanga and Maniema 16 December, 2008 provinces The International Federation’s Disaster Relief Emergency Fund (DREF) is a source of un-earmarked money created by the Federation in 1985 to ensure that immediate financial support is available for Red Cross and Red Crescent response to emergencies. The DREF is a vital part of the International Federation’s disaster response system and increases the ability of national societies to respond to disasters. CHF 173,430 (USD 147,449 or EUR 110,212) has been allocated from the Federation’s Disaster Relief Emergency Fund (DREF) to support the Red Cross of the Democratic Republic of the Congo in building its cholera outbreak management capacities in two provinces, namely Maniema and Katanga, and providing assistance to some 600’000 beneficiaries. Un-earmarked funds to repay DREF are encouraged. Summary: Although this DREF bulletin describes the situation in four provinces (North and South Kivu, Maniema and Katanga), the proposed operation will focus only on two provinces (Maniema and Katanga). This is because North and South Kivu, due to ongoing conflict, the RCDRC is working with the ICRC as lead agency. Therefore, all cholera response activities in those two provinces will be covered by ICRC and all cholera response activities in those two provinces will not be covered by this DREF operation. Since early October 2008, high morbidity and mortality rates associated with a cholera epidemic outbreak have been registered in the Maniema, Katanga, North and South Kivu provinces.

  • Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC)
    UA: 208/09 Index: AFR 62/013/2009 DRC Date: 30 July 2009 URGENT ACTION LEADING DRC HUMAN RIGHTS DEFENDER ARRESTED A prominent human rights defender has been detained as prisoner of conscience since 24 July in the south-east of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). His organization had recently published a report alleging state complicity in illegal mining at a uranium mine, and he is facing politically motivated charges. Golden Misabiko, President of the Association Africaine de défense des Droits de l'Homme in Katanga province (ASADHO/Katanga), was arrested on 24 July by the intelligence services in the provincial capital, Lubumbashi. He is held at the Prosecutor’s Office (Parquet), sleeping outdoors on a cardboard box because the holding cell is overcrowded and filthy. On 29 July, the Lubumbashi High Court ordered that he should be detained for 15 days, for further investigation and possible trial on charges of "threatening state security" (atteinte à la sûreté de l’Etat) and "defamation" (diffamation). The court rejected a plea from his lawyers to release him on bail. The Katanga judicial authorities appear to have been put under political pressure to keep Golden Misabiko in detention. The charges against Golden Misabiko relate to a report published by ASADHO/Katanga on 12 July about the Shinkolobwe uranium mine. The report alleged that military and civilian officials had been complicit in illegal mining at Shinkolobwe after the government closed the mine for reasons of national security and public safety, in January 2004. The report said that the DRC authorities had not done enough to secure the mine.

Subsequently, when the two UN experts were killed, the Minister for Human Rights of the Democratic Republic of the Congo called for a joint investigation to bring the perpetrators of human rights violations and abuses to justice. Since then the humanitarian and human rights situation has deteriorated dramatically and various actors are fuelling ethnic hatred, resulting in extremely grave, widespread and apparently planned attacks against the civilian population in the Kasais. Last week, given the gravity of the allegations received and restricted access to parts of the greater Kasai area, and in line with my statement to this Council on 6 June, I deployed a team of OHCHR investigators to interview recent refugees from the Kasais.
