notes: On 9 April 2021, a group of people erected barricades in the streets of Beni (Beni, Nord-Kivu) to demonstrate against the recrudescence of ADF attacks in the region and to demand the departure of the MONUSCO, who they accuse of mishandling the security situation in the Eastern part of the country. During the demonstration, the FARDC killed 2 civilians in the neighborhood of Mabakanga following attempts at dispersing a group of rioters who were blocking the passage of a military ambulance. Another civilian was injured during the demonstrations. [size=no report]
