notes: On 20 January 2021, youths associated with the UDPS party stormed and vandalized the office of a cultural entity in Lubumbashi city (Lubumbashi, Haut-Katanga). This entity was associated with the pastor and former head of the Electoral Commission (CENI) Ngoy Mulunda, who is close to Joseph Kabila and was arrested that week under unclear accusations. The attack was another example of the rising tensions between the 2 ruling parties. [size=no report]
