Description :
Kanyaruchinya, North Kivu province in eastern of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), the intense and ongoing clashes in Rutshuru territory between the Armed Forces of the Democratic Republic of the Congo and M23 fighters have caused more than 72'000 people to flee their homes in the space of one week.
With additional displaced people arriving, living conditions in the makeshift camps are extremely difficult. In the village of Kanyaruchinya, around ten kilometres from Goma, more than 3'600 people have taken refuge in churches and in and around a school. Most of these people are women and children.
In response to the emergency, an International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) team has set up water bladders to improve the hygiene conditions and meet the daily needs of 10'000 people, including those who had fled the volcanic eruption. In a notable show of solidarity, this latter group welcomed the newly displaced families.
The ICRC also calls on all combatants to protect civilians and allow humanitarian workers to provide people with the help they need.
