The situation in the eastern DRC has deteriorated significantly, marked by escalating conflicts involving various armed groups, notably the M23 and the Allied Democratic Forces. The ongoing conflict has worsened the humanitarian situation in the region, displacing over 7 million people. About 237,000 individuals have been forced to abandon their homes since the beginning of 2025, according to the United Nations. Photo by Zanem Nety Zaidi/Xinhua/ABACAPRESS.COM
