In a statement issued in Beni on October 22, North Kivu civil society called on communities to strengthen their unity in the face of security threats it links to the National Front for Reconstruction (FRN), a politico-military movement it says is led by Joseph Kabila. Its president, John Banyene, warned against division and urged residents to remain vigilant.

Civil society also asked the International Criminal Court prosecutor to investigate crimes committed in eastern DRC and prosecute those allegedly responsible.
