Over the past year and a half, there has been a significant surge in asylum seekers from the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), particularly from the Masisi and Rutshuru territories in North Kivu, currently occupied by various armed groups. Civilians, caught between these groups, are traveling through Goma to Tanzania via Bukavu and Uvira. Key reasons for fleeing include fear of being targeted by armed combatants, forced recruitment of young men, and generalized violence, including sexual violence.
