Deadly DRC Protests Target UN as Ebola Workers Pulled out

Protests targeted at UN facilities in eastern DR Congo as anger rises over the failure to stop deadly attacks on civilians by rebels.

Adam Day was interviewed by Al Jazeera regarding protests targeted at UN facilities in eastern DR Congo as anger rises over the failure to stop deadly attacks on civilians by rebels. He notes, “There is a fairly predictable pattern, which is the Congolese army will do an attack against the ADF positions – the ADF will then attack civilian populations, and the civilian populations will then carry out either demonstrations or attacks – in this case against the UN.”
