MONUC firmly condemns attacks on military camps in Kinshasa
MONUC condemns, in the strongest terms, the Sunday 28 March attacks on the Tshatshi and Kokolo military camps, the Ndolo Air Force camp, the logistics base, the navy river sector and other districts in Kinshasa.
Upon being alerted, MONUC kept in contact with the Congolese political and military authorities. Ghanaian and Tunisian patrols of the Neutral Force in town were stepped up. MONUC hails the putting in place of an investigating committee to establish the origin of these serious incidents and the responsibilities thereof, as announced by the Minister of Information.
MONUC wishes a timely normalization of the situation in order to put the population at ease. The United Nations Mission in the DRC, having a mandate to support the transition, continues to closely follow the situation and reiterates the need for good management of the process whose ultimate objective is the holding of free and democratic elections in 2005.
