    Democratic Republic of the Congo: The forgotten people of North Kivu

    Garuka Furaha, 45 years old, was displaced in Sake town for three months. She was admitted to CBCA Ndosho Hospital on 12 February 2024. She tells us:

    “From the hill that you can see from the camp, we could hear the sound of fighting from early morning. Suddenly, at around 2pm, a bomb fell on the camp. Some people were killed outright and others, like me, were evacuated here by bus in the evening. A piece of shrapnel pierced my right eye and injured my shoulder. I don’t know where my other children are. I only know that my 16-year-old daughter was also wounded in the neck. I consider myself lucky even if I have only one eye left, because some people are dead and others have lost limbs.”
