Violence continues – Congo: rebels shot minors

Date:

The United Nations warn of an “even deeper and more extensive conflict” in the Democratic Republic of Congo with “even more devastating consequences for the civilian population”. The Un Human Rights Office has seriously documented violence, including rape and the murder of children.

On verified videos you can see how the M23 rebels, which are supported by Rwanda, three boys shoot in the city of Bukavu. According to the information, the rebels asked the armed boys between the ages of eleven and 15 to lay down their weapons. When they did not follow, they were shot, said a spokeswoman for the Human Rights Office.

Rebels received support from Rwanda
It rarely happens that the UN -Human Rights Bureau is so clearly attributed to one of the actors in a conflict. The office called on the M23 rebels and neighboring Rwanda to ensure that human rights are observed.

Since the end of January, the rebels have invaded the Congolese army into the city of Goma and the capital of the province of South Kivu after serious fights against the Congolese army. They are supported according to unconfirmed reports from Rwandic Troops. According to reports, 900 corpses were restored to Goma alone. There are often targeted attacks on hospitals and humanitarian helpers, said it.
