Beni, DRC. – (News of The South) – The Organization for World Peace has expressed its concern over the region of Beni in the Democratic of Congo (DRC) following a series of attacks on civilians by the rebel group, Allied Democratic Forces (ADF).
ADF rebels have been staging attacks in the DRC for the past twenty years. Apetina-Sana, Mbau, and Eringeti are three locations which have experienced the most attacks from the ADF.
“The lack of attention paid to the region of Beni by the DRC government in the wake of these attacks is unacceptable.
More action needs to be taken by the government and by the armed forces to protect citizens. Groups like the ADF should not be able to continue with these violent attacks without facing consequences or without being met with resistance of any form,” read a statement from the Organization for World Peace.
Many citizens feel the government and armed forces have not utilized all of the necessary resources to combat the ADF.
