notes: On 18 June 2020, members and supporters of the Union for the Congolese Nation (UNC) party marched in Bukavu (Bukavu, Sud-Kivu) to support and demand the immediate release from prison of their leader Vital Kamerhe, who is being tried for his alleged role in the embezzlement of more than 50 USD million of public funds. The police dispersed the crowd firing tear gas and live ammunition when some demonstrators attempted to access the governor's building to hand over a manifesto. [size=no report]
