The Congolese government has “regretted” the vandalism and looting witnessed in the capital Kinshasa on Tuesday, with Foreign Affairs minister Thérèse Kayikwamba assuring foreigners that “all practical measures are being taken to guarantee the protection of diplomatic missions, their personnel and their property”.
She said security had been reinforced embassies and diplomatic missions in the city after rioters attacked the embassies of Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda, US, France, Belgium and the premises of the UN mission, Monusco.
