notes: On 22 April 2021, nearly 100 students between the ages of 7 to 20 years old organized a second sit-in outside the Town Hall of Beni (Beni, Nord-Kivu) to demand the resumption of school activities, which were paralyzed following a wave of anti-MONUSCO demonstrations, and call on the country's Head of State to address the region's security situation. During the protest, an element of the PNC shot and injured a girl. Reports suggest that the children stayed overnight to make their demands. [size=nearly 100]
