The number has decreased by 12% compared to February 2015, when 3,653 incidents have been reported. The territories Incidents per territory of Masisi and Rutshuru have BENI 402 accounted for LUBERO 439 the majority MASISI 774 of incidents in NYIRAGONGO 159 March 2015 RUTSHURU 756 WALIKALE 685 TOTAL 3215 Incidents per alleged perpetrator Incidents per category of victim Number of cases per type of incidents The majority of incidents in March 2015 were violations to the right of property and liberty I. Summary of main protection concerns In Rutshuru there has been an increase in the number of cases of attacks against vehicles followed by homicide, maiming and kidnapping of civilians, perpetrated by FDLR members and by unidentified armed individuals, especially on the Kiwanja-Goma, Rwindi-Kibirizi, Kiwanja- Kanyabayonga and Kiwanja-Ishasha roads. On 11 March 2015, six minors who used to be members of Mai Mai Shetani have surrendered to FARDC in Nyamilima, in groupement de Binza in Rutshuru. In Beni a lady was killed by her relatives for having refused to be forcefully married. II. Protection context by territory MASISI The security situation in Masisi remains unstable, with intense activity by armed groups. On 16 March 2015, the situation has been characterised by the clashes between APCLS and FARDC in Butemule and Katiri villages, localité of Lwibo, groupement of Bapfuna. A massive displacement of local population to several villages around Nyabiondo, Buchuchu, Muundu and to the forest has been observed as a consequence of this fighting, as well as pillaging and suspension of commercial and educational activities around Nyabiondo. On 18 March 2015, another attack by APCLS against the FARDC was reported in Kibarizo, localité of Muhanga, around the displacement site of Muhanga. Shooting of both light and heavy weapons has created much fear among the population. The clashes reported in the groupement of Kisimba in Walikale Territory between FDLR and NDC Cheka caused a massive displacement of the population towards Pinga. RUTSHURU Throughout the month of March 2015 the situation in Rutshuru was characterised by the tracking down of FDLR elements by FARDC in certain areas and by intense activity of other armed groups such as Mai Mai Shetani. Therefore there have been a number of cases of homicide and a significant degree of fear among the population, as well as movement restriction for farmers to access their fields and disruptions to school and commercial activities in certain areas. A massive population displacement was observed, from Buramba to the neighbouring locations of Kisharo and Nyamilima, in the groupement of Binza, escaping from the acts of vandalism carried out by armed groups and individuals. Violations perpetrated against civilians by FARDC, PNC, ANR and DGM as well as certain local authorities continue to be reported in a number of groupements in Rutshuru Territory. WALIKALE The situation in Walikale was characterised by intense activity by armed groups, especially towards the end of March, and by a significant amount of fugitives from the central prison. 56 detainees, civilians as well as military, have dispersed in the forest around the groupements of Bana Bangi, Utunda and Bakusu. Incursions by Mai Mai Kifuafua in the Chambucha village, localité of Makungurano, have been reported, as well as incursions by Mai Mai Cheka in Kishanga, Tukumbi and Kalenga villages, localité of Bana Mukobya. Clashes have also been reported, for example between Mai Mai Cheka and Mai Mai Gudot in the Twamakuru village, localité of Robe, groupement of Ihana, as well as attacks by Mai Mai APCLS/Janvier against FARDC positions in the Bulinda/Kashebere village, localité of Bana Ulengo, groupement of Luberike. NYIRAGONGO Attacks by FARDC against FDLR members have been reported, during which a civilian was killed and another one gravely hurt; after these operations, the inhabitants of Mutaho are afraid of potential violent acts and looting by FDLR who roam around that area. Two vehicles, a jeep belonging to an NGO and a truck, were attacked by unidentified armed individuals on the way from Rutshuru to Goma in Kamahoro, groupement of Buhumba. The presence of an unusual amount of unidentified armed men in uniform was observed in the village of Kanyanja on the Rwando-congolese border in the groupement of Buhumba, moving towards the Virunga National Park West of the groupements of Kibati, Buhumba and Rusayo. Violations committed against civilians by FARDC, PNC, ANR members and certain local authorities continue to be reported in various groupements. BENI Throughout the period examined in this report, FARDC has intensified operations in the areas under control of ADF. During this time, many violations have been allegedly perpetrated by FARDC members who are deployed in the operation zones, especially in South-eastern Beni Territory. In Oicha armed men who are related to FARDC are accused of having hurt people inside their homes. Five people were killed in an invasion by ADF to Mbongia, Mulolia, Kididjwe and Mayangose, in the rural area of Ruwenzori, outside Beni city. Intense movement by armed groups has been reported in Beni Territory, especially ADF, FDLR and unidentified armed individuals. This situation is very distressing for the population. Fearing for their security, many farmers have avoided going to their fields in certain areas. On March 25 a meeting was held in Oicha, where many measures were taken, remarkably the formal interdiction for farmers not to access their fields in the operation areas. LUBERO Certain areas that had been considered unstable have regained some relative tranquility during the month of March. In some areas the strong presence of FARDC has contributed to improve the protection of civilians and decrease the mobility of armed groups. On the other hand, the presence of armed groups is strong in Bandulu, groupement of Babika. Additionally, the attacks by NDC Cheka and Mai Mai Kyandenga against FDLR have strengthened the retaliation by FDLR against the population in the groupements of Tama and Itala. It is important to remember that many abuses have been perpetrated against the communities living in Lubero Territory since the announcement of the operations against FDLR and other armed groups. Many incursions by armed men have taken place in the city of Butembo. However, the cases of homicide have substantially decreased. On March 17, over 50 FDLR members have gone to Matwa and Isiro villages in the groupement of Lughenge and on 28 March a group of FDLR members arrived at South-eastern Ndwali. III.

Existant depuis mars 2001, son siège social se trouve dans la ville de Butembo, a l’Avenue du Centre n0 40, dans la commune de Kimemi. Le présent rapport est une synthèse sur l’état de lieux des droits humains et de la paix au Nord Kivu pendant l’exercice 2010 car, dans la vision du GADHOP depuis sa création, ces deux domaines sont très liés. Nous faisons un commentaire relatant notre compréhension de la situation qui est suivi de nos recommandations à l’autorité provinciale et nationale pour l’amélioration de la situation au Nord Kivu. Nous mettons en annexe les tableaux des rapports mensuels sur les violations des droits humains et les événements de non paix comme les pillages, les vols mains armées, et autres. Ces derniers sont des faits dont on ne sait pas dire d’emblée qu’ils sont des violations des droits humains, sauf en cas de preuve d’indifférence de l’Etat congolais à éradiquer le phénomène (exemple de vols mains armés dirigés par des bandits.

  • Community-Driven Civilian Protection in the DRC: Preventing Violence and Mitigating Harm
    Community-Driven Civilian Protection in the DRC: Preventing Violence and Mitigating Harm Mike Jobbins October 2010 Summary The series of conflicts and wars that followed the breakdown of the Zairian state, and which continue to plague the Democratic Republic of Congo, have been among the deadliest since World War II. Civilians have suffered from both the direct consequences of violence as well as the war’s destruction of lifesaving infrastructure. While the political causes of conflict stem from national and international forces, the patterns of violence and level of civilian suffering have been profoundly shaped by local factors. This paper analyzes local efforts to protect civilians in two Congolese trading cities: Butembo, North Kivu and Dongo, Equateur which represent polar opposites in civilian response to conflict. Elite-driven, civilian-led collective action by close-knit leadership in Butembo played a key role in minimizing the suffering of civilians in the city throughout the 1996-2003 war. The strong influence of the Catholic Church and other civil society groups led to effective advocacy on several occasions to reduce or prevent violence and accommodation of rebel financial demands by business leaders ensured a degree of internal security and influence of the local community over rebel actions. Reinvestment in social services, local security and support networks reduced mortality. Accommodation of armed groups and the patron-driven elite networks may have aggravated the conflict in other ways, but benefited the communities they served. In Dongo, ethnic divisions and bureaucratic leadership left the city paralyzed and prevented collective action prior to the city’s sacking by rebels in late 2009.

  • Ebola Virus Disease Outbreak in North Kivu and Ituri Provinces, Democratic Republic of the Congo – Second Update
    RAPID RISK ASSESSMENT Ebola virus disease outbreak in North Kivu and Ituri Provinces, Democratic Republic of the Congo – second update 21 December 2018 Main conclusions As of 16 December 2018, the Ministry of Health of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) has reported 539 Ebola virus disease (EVD) cases, including 48 probable and 491 confirmed cases. This epidemic in the provinces of North Kivu and Ituri is the largest outbreak of EVD recorded in DRC and the second largest worldwide. A total of 315 deaths occurred during the reporting period. As of 16 December 2018, 52 healthcare workers (50 confirmed and two probable) have been reported among the confirmed cases, and of these 17 have died. As of 10 December 2018, the overall case fatality rate was 58%. Since mid-October, an average of around 30 new cases has been reported every week, with 14 health zones reporting confirmed cases in the past 21 days. This trend shows that the outbreak is continuing across geographically dispersed areas. Although the transmission intensity has decreased in Beni, the outbreak is continuing in Butembo city, and new clusters are emerging in the surrounding health zones. A geographical extension of the outbreak (within the country and to neighbouring countries) cannot be excluded as it is unlikely that it will be controlled in the near future. Despite significant achievements, the implementation of response measures remains problematic because of the prolonged humanitarian crisis in North Kivu province, the unstable security situation arising from a complex armed conflict and the mistrust of affected communities in response activities.

    DRC Conflict and displacement in Nord Kivu and Ituri Briefing note – 14 May 2019 Since 1 May, attacks and clashes between armed groups and Congolese security forces triggered the displacement of more than 12,000 people in Nord Kivu and Ituri provinces in eastern DRC. Although exact numbers and humanitarian needs of newly displaced people are unknown, they add to more than 100,000 people who were displaced in Nord Kivu in April.
