It is the work of a small number of individuals who broke away from our structure to pursue their own interests, and who do not represent the mutualities, the community, or the civil society they claim to speak for.

We say this because the timing is not a coincidence. ๐ช๐ต๐ถ๐น๐ฒ ๐๐ผ๐บ๐ฒ ๐๐ฟ๐ ๐๐ผ ๐บ๐๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐๐ฟ๐๐๐ต, ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐๐ฟ๐๐๐ต ๐ถ๐ ๐ฑ๐ผ๐ฐ๐๐บ๐ฒ๐ป๐๐ฒ๐ฑ, ๐ฑ๐ฎ๐๐ฒ๐ฑ, ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐๐ถ๐๐ป๐ฒ๐๐๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐ฏ๐ ๐บ๐ฎ๐ป๐, ๐ถ๐ป๐ฑ๐ฒ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ป๐ฑ๐ฒ๐ป๐๐น๐ ๐ผ๐ณ ๐๐.
On 24โ26 June 2026, Minembwe General Hospital was struck repeatedly by drone strikes, destroying its pediatric ward, pharmacy, and administrative building, and wounding patients and staff. ๐ง๐ต๐ถ๐ ๐ต๐ฎ๐ฝ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ป๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐๐ถ๐๐ต๐ถ๐ป ๐ฎ ๐ฑ๐ฎ๐ ๐ผ๐ณ ๐ฎ๐ป ๐ถ๐ป๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ป๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป๐ฎ๐น๐น๐ ๐ฏ๐ฟ๐ผ๐ธ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐ฐ๐ผ๐บ๐บ๐ถ๐๐บ๐ฒ๐ป๐ ๐๐ผ ๐ฑ๐ฒ-๐ฒ๐๐ฐ๐ฎ๐น๐ฎ๐๐ฒ ๐๐ฒ๐ป๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป๐ ๐ถ๐บ๐บ๐ฒ๐ฑ๐ถ๐ฎ๐๐ฒ๐น๐, ๐ฒ๐๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ฐ๐ถ๐ฎ๐น๐น๐ ๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ผ๐๐ป๐ฑ ๐ ๐ถ๐ป๐ฒ๐บ๐ฏ๐๐ฒ.
These are facts. Anyone seeking to discredit them is not speaking for the Banyamulenge people.
We call on the international guarantors of that commitment, the United States, the African Union, Qatar, Togo, and the United Kingdom, to ensure it is honored on the ground, not just on paper. ๐๐ถ๐๐ถ๐น๐ถ๐ฎ๐ป๐ ๐ถ๐ป ๐ ๐ถ๐ป๐ฒ๐บ๐ฏ๐๐ฒ ๐ฑ๐ฒ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐๐ฒ ๐ฝ๐ฟ๐ผ๐๐ฒ๐ฐ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป ๐ป๐ผ๐.
