Soldiers raid village as tensions flare over DRC’s Kamoa mine expansion

  • In late April, security forces fired live ammunition to disperse protesters near a mine in the DRC province of Lualaba.
  • The protesters were demanding compensation from the mine’s owner, Kamoa, as part of a stalled resettlement process.
  • The company says the delay is because the number of people claiming to have been displaced by its operations has ballooned.
