notes: On 25 March 2021, a group of doctors and medical workers gathered in the city of Kisangani (Kisangani, Tshopo) to demand the payment of their salaries/bonuses, a promise which they say was made to them by President Felix Tshisekedi two years ago and which has not been delivered. PNC elements intervened in the event, preventing protesters from delivering a memorandum to the city's Town Hall authorities. Subsequent sources report that the police beat and injured the protesters during the event. [size=no report]
