Description : Mwajuma has been displaced since fighting in February 2025 and is caring for her 9 children and 1 grandchild in the village of Mukera. “Weapons bearers arrived in the night, they did not shoot, but came to burn the houses, looking for other armed groups members. It was at midnight and we heard screaming and crying. We hid in the forest for hours, waiting until dawn. When there was light, we fled. The children were crying, and my daughter Rosia broke her leg in the hills. My husband and some of the men from the village made a sling and carried her down together to safety”.
