The purchased people in Dr. Congo face an uncertain future after being fled from Goma | News of the conflict
Once crowded with white improvised huts, a huge kanyaruchinya camp for displaced people on the outskirts of Gom, in the war -torn Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), now she looks creepy empty.
Of Goma took the M23 fighters supported in Rwanda Last week, about 100,000 internally displaced people left a hill full of pits, which they called home for several years.
The M23 offensive in Eastern Drc rich minerals is the latest for the scar that recorded an unattractive conflict, which included dozens of armed groups, kill about six million people over three decades.
“Life in the camp is a life of suffering and hunger,” said Christine Bwiz, one of the last people to leave Kanyaruchiny, sitting near the border with Rwanda.
There, the inhabitants descended improvised cars from sticks and crade together. Hunger was angry and poor hygiene regularly caused the cholera epidemic.
Many had mixed feelings to finally go home. Some said they were relieved, others emphasized that they had no choice. Everyone is worried about their future.
On the side of the road, a convoy of overcrowded trucks picked up some of the last contingents of passengers.
“I was a displaced person who came with anything. And today I’m going home only when I came home,” Denise Zaning said, sitting in the back of the vehicle, adding that she had no idea where she was moving.
“I’m leaving, but I don’t know where to live,” she said. Others shared her anxiety.
“Our homes have been destroyed, our children have been lost because of the war, and we are returning home hungry,” said Bwiza, another displaced person.
For Aline Irafash, “Hunger will kill us wherever we go, but it’s better to suffer at home.”
The driver of the truck they boarded, he said that the M23 paid the vehicle and funded the trip.
Because the M23 and Troops fighters took control of the city, nearby line lines disappeared.
