As violence escalates, eastern DRC remains one of the deadliest conflict zones since World War II, with six million lives lost since 1996.

Mass graves expose ongoing atrocities as armed groups fight over mineral-rich land, displacing millions and subjecting civilians to massacres, kidnappings, and human rights abuses.

In the interview with Common Home TV, a work of the Redemptorists of Oceania, Br Nicaise Mundurame CSsR, a journalist and lawyer, shared his insights on the complex geopolitical forces shaping the DRC today. 

This conversation sheds light on the historical roots of the crisis, the involvement of foreign powers, and the devastating humanitarian toll that is often overlooked by international media.

Despite the immense suffering, Br Nicaise highlights the resilience of faith and the role of the Church in bringing hope to those caught in the crossfire.

The conversation sheds light on the realities of war, displacement, and the unwavering commitment of the Redemptorists to stand with those in need.
