Pan-African Attitude | Why is the World Ignorant of the Congo Crisis?

Violence has escalated in the eastern part of the Democratic Republic of the Congo between M23 militants and the DRC army. Unfortunately, rockets and bombs have landed on universities, markets and villages, killing some civilians while others run for their lives. Many fear the conflict and the humanitarian crisis will cycle out of control as Goma, North Kivu province's largest city—home to 2 million people—might fall to the so-called rebels.

African Stream hosted two guests from Friends of the Congo and the Center for Research on the Congo-Kinshasa to unpack the situation.
