notes: On 25 May 2021, farmers of Kanyenzi clashed against former NDC-R combatants (Bwira splinter faction) in the village of Kanyenzi (Rutshuru, Nord-Kivu), near the military base of Rumangabo. Reports suggest that the incident was triggered after the ex-combatants were caught stealing crops from the fields of Kanyenzi inhabitants. The groups fought one another with machetes, while the ex-combatants burnt inhabitants' homes and killed their animals. [size=no report]
