At least 15 people have been killed on the second day of anti-United Nations protests in the Democratic Republic of the Congo’s turbulent northeastern region, in attacks UN chief Antonio Guterres said could constitute a ‘war crime’. Protests erupted on Monday as crowds took to the streets of North Kivu province’s main city Goma against the country’s UN mission – United Nations Organization Stabilization Mission in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (MONUSCO) – which they accuse of failing to stop armed groups’ decades-old fighting. Demonstrations spread further north to the towns of Beni and Butembo on Tuesday. Al Jazeera’s Catherine Soi reports. – Subscribe to our channel: http://aje.io/AJSubscribe – […]
