Description :
ICRC website article, 06.04.2016 : " Democratic Republic of the Congo: Hope takes flight. "I'm eight years old. Ten months ago, my parents disappeared. Now my brothers and I are going back to our home town, Lubumbashi, to live with our uncle, our dad's big brother."
Due to the conflict in the DRC, many children have become separated from their families. Every year, the ICRC reunites dozens of them with their loved ones.
On 1 March 2016, an ICRC plane took off from Goma with seven children on board: Edward and his brothers and four girls from Shabunda (in South Kivu) and Kindu (in Maniema)."
