Global Witness EXPOSED 1/2
The latest claims by @Global_Witness (GW) that "Rwanda smuggles Congo's coltan" rely on pure disinformation, approximations, and on manipulated images. Our #CTGL_FactCheck team has outlined some of the elements of manipulation by #GlobalWitness:
- GW uses disinformation and image manipulation suggesting that coltan is smuggled to Rwanda using an image extracted from the UNGoE 2024 final report, which is a screenshot of a December 2023 produced video showing 60 motorbikes carrying #FDLR_Wazalendo, and loaded with bags of coltan, while fleeing M23 from #Rubaya towards #Mushaki. (p. 10 of the report, Interactive Map, Images #1, #2, #3 and full original video below).
- GW is using this image to suggest that the smugglers are #M23 or "smugglers" who are working on behalf of Rwanda. Yet in the enclosed video, we hear that these are #FDLR_Wazalendo running from M23 who are saying in Swahili (00:31-00:37): "Here are motorbikes loaded with minerals. We are leaving Rubaya and are really fleeing the Tutsi" [The "Tutsi" here means "M23"]. "Here we are in the hills of Ishasha, and here in front of us, we can see the motorbikes", "Here the situation is difficult, pray for us, pray for us!"
- GW additionally spreads a mistruth about having been on the ground in the caption of the same image in the interactive map. They write: "Global Witness has travelled with a coltan smuggler through the hills towards Goma." (Image #2). GW in other words mislead its readers about having done a field investigation for this report, but instead has relied solely on recycled false claims, manipulated information and images.
