Citizens in DRC Protest the M23 Offensive and World Indifference

Thousands of Bukavu residents, young people from civil society organisations, grassroots movements, and other pressure groups flooded the city’s main street on Monday morning to protest the international community’s complicity and silence, despite the deteriorating situation in the country’s east.
One Bukavu citizen said, “All Congolese should join to stop Rwandan invasion, reject what we are now, and say no to Rwandan annexation. Determined to make their views heard, these men and women took to the streets to protest the M23 rebels’ worrisome push towards South Kivu through the border town of Minova, which fell into rebel hands last week.
Judge Nene Bintu, the president of civil society in South Kivu, expressed dissatisfaction. Civil society is dissatisfied that the UN Security Council’s emergency meeting did not result in a binding resolution. Despite appeals for a cease-fire and rapid departure of Rwandan forces from Congolese territory, they continue to advance. The humanitarian situation is disastrous and highly frightening, as thousands of displaced individuals escaping the conflict face an unparalleled disaster.
