notes: On 13 July 2020, members of the Lamuka coalition and the AFDC party gathered in Bukavu (Sud-Kivu) with the intention to march against the endorsement of Ronsard Malonda as the chairperson of CENI (National Independent Electoral Commission) by the National Assembly. Police cordoned off many streets in an attempt to prevent the march from starting, enforcing the ban on rallies due to the coronavirus restrictions. Police fired tear gas and charged at some smaller groups which continued to march, resulting in 10 activists arrested and 5 injured. [size=at least 15]
