Insecurity continuing in South Kivu

Insecurity is continuing in parts of South Kivu, particularly in Bukavu and the area south of Uvira, humanitarian sources have reported. Many of the incidents have been linked to the national vaccination days where aid workers have been targeted and vehicles ambushed. In Bunyakiri, Mayi-Mayi fighters stole vaccines for their children, who remained in the forest.
