UN warns of ethnic attacks in eastern DR Congo
The UN peacekeeping force in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo warns of the risk of ethnically motivated attacks as conditions deteriorate in the region, haunted by the legacy of the 1994 Rwanda genocide and its aftermath. "Ethnically motivated attacks in the region with a very sensitive history need to be taken seriously," says Vivian van de Perre, the deputy special representative for operations in the MONUSCO peacekeeping force.
