Hoi zämä
Im Ostkongo gehts wieder mal rund, die M23-Rebellen rücken in Richtung Goma vor.
Jean Bosco hat mir folgende eMail geschrieben (den Link musste ich selbst einfügen, da das Forumsprogramm den nicht so akzeptiert hat wie er im eMail stand, der Rest ist ein 1zu1-Zitat):
'Dear Claudio,
Hope this finds you well. The following is an other emergency needing advocacy as the situation here keeps worsening.
I am really very sorry but the following is the description of the situation:
Because of the continued violence and unrest in the Virunga National Park regions of Eastern DRC, thousands of families have had to flee their homes near Rutshuru and are currently seeking refuge in the Kanyaruchinya IDP camps. The M23 rebels have continued to advance toward Goma, affecting more and more families and creating chaos in their fight against the DRC government.
UNICEF and its partners have set up 18 temporary learning spaces in Nyiragongo territory, where more than 2,300 children attend school, but many are without clothes, shoes, and basic necessities as they left everything behind. This news video shows what many have been enduring for months on end:

Please consider donating to support these displaced students until they get their security and economy back, as we wait and hope for more peace and stability in the region.
Many thanks for your time and please don't hesitate!
Best regards,
Jean Bosco'
