Violence engulfs Congo’s once-peaceful Kasaï region

(UNHCR) – Twenty-five-year-old Bernard* is a strong and healthy father of three. He does not seem like the type to be easily thrown off course by life. But right now, he is at a complete loss. “The children keep asking me, daddy, where is mama? They think of her a lot and cry,” he says. “I sometimes take my mobile phone and pretend to call her and then I tell them that she will be coming soon. But this does not calm them anymore.”
