Violence flares anew in Mukungwe concession<\/span><\/a><\/u><\/span> | 1 December 2015 | Africa Mining Intelligence<\/span><\/p>\n

According to our sources in South Kivu, violent episodes, including killings, have erupted in recent weeks on the big gold concession of Mukungwe near the town of Mushinga. The concession, much prized by small-scale diggers, was the object of several workshops last year that aimed to curb grave security problems. Various parties involved in the conflict are due to meet once more in December in Bukavu. For the moment, a branch of the national intelligence agency that operates in the province has called for the immediate release of persons who were recently arrested. The issue is highly complicated. The small-scale miners have an axe to grind with rich local families who claim property rights on the concession. But the military also regularly barges into the zone even though the law bans it from entering.<\/span><\/p>\n

Le secr\u00e9taire g\u00e9n\u00e9ral de l’ONU a propos\u00e9 au Conseil de s\u00e9curit\u00e9 trois \u00ab\u00a0options\u00a0\u00bb pour r\u00e9gler la crise au Burundi, dont l’envoi de Casques bleus dans le cadre d’une op\u00e9ration de maintien de la paix. Dans sa lettre, le secr\u00e9taire g\u00e9n\u00e9ral souligne qu'\u00a0\u00bb\u00e9tant donn\u00e9 les r\u00e9alit\u00e9s politiques existantes et les conditions de s\u00e9curit\u00e9 sur le terrain\u00a0\u00bb, la seule option r\u00e9aliste pour le moment est une mission politique. Il recommande cependant au Conseil de \u00ab\u00a0r\u00e9viser le mandat de la pr\u00e9sence de l’ONU (au Burundi) en fonction de l’\u00e9volution de la situation\u00a0\u00bb, ce qui laisse ouverte la possibilit\u00e9 d’une v\u00e9ritable mission de maintien de la paix si la crise devait d\u00e9raper. Cependant, pour pouvoir envoyer des Casques bleus, il faudrait l’accord de Bujumbura ou l’adoption d’une autre r\u00e9solution contraignante du Conseil.<\/span><\/p>\n

Nearly three years after the \u201cdevastating\u201d conflict began in the Central African Republic (CAR), an estimated 1.2 million children are now in urgent need of humanitarian assistance, said the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF). \u201cThe violence that has plagued this country has had a devastating impact on the lives of children,\u201d said UNICEF’s Representative in the Central African Republic, Mohamed Fall in a news release, adding that to meet the overwhelming humanitarian needs, access and greater international support are essential. According to UNICEF estimates, more than two million children have been affected by the violence which first broke out in December 2012 and which reached crisis levels in December 2013 following clashes that led to the displacement of hundreds of thousands in the capital, Bangui. About 400,000 people remain displaced within the country, and renewed clashes in September created an additional 39,000 internally displaced people in Bangui and a further half a million people are living as refugees in neighbouring countries, UNICEF said.<\/span><\/p>\n

As of 27 November 2015, the situation remains volatile; civilians in Bangui and across the country continue to live in desperate conditions experiencing increasing challenges in meeting their most basic needs. According to the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (UNOCHA) there are nearly 400,000 internally displaced people (IDPs) in CAR, of which at least 44,000 living in camps in Bangui; while approximately 454,000 people have fled to neighbouring countries. In CAR, the \u201chot areas\u201d of the country continue to shift from time to time. However currently they include: Bangui, Bambari, Dekoa and Sibut in the central part of the country, Bossangoa and KagaBandoro in the north, Boali in the south and Alindao in the east. In December 2015, a constitutional referendum is scheduled (13 December 2015), which will be followed by the first round of elections (on 27 December 2015), and then possible second round elections (in January 2015). It is a fear that if the results of the elections are disputed, it will lead to more violence.<\/p>\n

CAR: \u00ab\u00a0The Humanitarian Situation is Still Critical\u00a0\u00bb<\/span><\/a><\/u><\/span> | 1 December 2015 | MSF | Reliefweb<\/span><\/p>\n

The humanitarian situation is still critical. One and a half million people are food insecure according to the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (UNOCHA). The public health system is highly insufficient, and international NGOs have, with few exceptions, no choice but to substitute for it. Most health facilities were already in poor condition in 2012 and are now nonfunctional. Medical personnel are not skilled enough because of the difficulty of obtaining medical training, and many are not performing their duties due to widespread insecurity, especially in the provinces. The supply of medical material remains very difficult to maintain. Thierry Dumont, Doctors Without Borders\/M\u00e9decins Sans Fronti\u00e8res (MSF) head of mission in Central African Republic (CAR), describes the current humanitarian crises in the country.<\/span><\/p>\n

The drastic fall of global commodity prices has immensely affected the local mining sector, pushing companies to look for strategies to minimise operational costs in a crisis industry players say is becoming unmanageable. Some mining companies have laid off workers or stopped selling their minerals while others have not paid miners for several months. Rwanda Mining Association (RMA), an organisation that brings together mining firms operating in the country, said minerals prices have been falling since the middle of the year and the trend is likely to continue until March.<\/span><\/p>\n

Rwanda’s push to overcome international bias over the origin of its mineral exports has been hampered by the reluctance of regional countries to implement a regional mineral certification mechanism, experts say. The certification is aimed at curbing the illicit flow of \u00ab\u00a0conflict minerals,\u00a0\u00bb including tin, tantalum and tungsten (the 3Ts), which are Rwanda’s principal mineral exports, and gold.

DRC President Outlines Vision for National Political Dialogue<\/a><\/u><\/span> | 29 November 2015 | Voice of America<\/p>\n

The Democratic Republic of Congo\u2019s president, Joseph Kabila, says the country will hold what he calls a national and inclusive political dialogue. The agenda appears to be focused on elections, and some observers believe the president has his own future in mind. President Joseph Kabila’s speech comes a week after his invitation to the United Nations to help recruit an international facilitator for a political dialogue. In his speech, broadcast Saturday, Kabila laid out reasons for holding this dialogue, all linked to upcoming elections. He mentioned disagreements over the voter list, the election timetable, and security around elections, all of which he said could undermine the process. He noted that previous national polls in 2006 and 2011 were marred by violence between political parties. He also said there are questions about the role the political class will play in promoting peaceful elections.<\/span><\/p>\n

Fresh Attempts to Muzzle Free Speech in Burundi<\/a><\/u><\/span> | 1 December 2015 | Human Rights Watch | Reliefweb<\/p>\n

Burundi\u2019s journalists and human rights defenders have had a rough year. A relentless government crackdown has forced almost all of them to flee the country. The assault has been overwhelming: government closure of all the main private radio stations, repeated death threats, threats of prosecution on trumped-up charges, beatings, and the attempted murder of leading human rights activist Pierre Claver Mbonimpa. Burundi\u2019s vibrant civil society movement and strong independent media used to be the envy of other countries in the region. But the government has spent the past year trying to destroy them. The latest blow came just last week, when Interior Minister Pascal Barandagiye ordered 10 Burundian nongovernmental organizations to suspend their activities. The move came four days after the prosecutor general ordered their bank accounts to be frozen.<\/p>\n
