"at Least 400 people were killed in ethnic clashes in north-west Congo-Kinshasa for two days in december, according to a local priest and a human rights activist. The news means that the total number now is three times higher than previous estimates."
"Clashes took place around the town of Yumbi on 16-17 december in the year between the various communities batende and banunu, and was among the worst in several years in the otherwise relatively peaceful region. The violence led to the government cancellation of the presidential elections in the area."
