We are deeply alarmed by reports of drone strikes and heavy artillery attacks by FARDC and its allies on civilian-populated areas in Minembwe, home to Banyamulenge families. Civilians have reportedly been killed and injured. @US_SrAdvisorAF @HouseForeign @SenRandPaul @MONUSCO

wagingnonviolence.org/ipra/2… A Congolese minority demands dignity and justice Facing targeted violence and silence around their plight, the Banyamulenge diaspora are calling for concrete action to protect civilians and human rights. Mandela Gapala May 15, 2026. The Banyamulenge are a Congolese Tutsi ethnic minority from the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo. Despite living there for generations, our identity and belonging have long been questioned, leaving our community vulnerable to cycles of exclusion and violence. @SecRubio @US_SrAdvisorAF @ymahmoudali @StateDept @AsstSecStateAF @francediplo @GermanyDiplo

Marchez pacifiquement, mon peuple… Et le monde, enfin, comprendra. Regardez-les. Des milliers d’âmes dignes, belles, déterminées, qui serpentent le long de Pennsylvania Avenue comme un fleuve de lumière et de courage. Pas un cri de haine, pas un geste de violence. Seulement la force tranquille de la vérité qui avance. Le 20 avril 2026, Washington DC a vu l’immensité de notre unité. Ce lundi, le silence des puissants a été brisé par le pas de milliers de Banyamulenge, de Tutsi et de tous ceux qui refusent de fermer les yeux sur le génocide en cours en RDC. Cette marche n’était pas qu’une manifestation. C’était une onde de choc. Une frappe d’Armada silencieuse qui a fait trembler les murs de Kinshasa. Les lobbies grassement payés, les machines à mensonges, les manipulateurs professionnels… personne ne s’attendait à ça. Personne ne s’attendait à une telle beauté, une telle discipline, une telle puissance tranquille. Nous n’avons pas besoin de hurler pour être entendus. Notre nombre, notre dignité et notre amour pour la vie parlent plus fort que toutes les armes. À nos frères et sœurs restés au pays, sous les bombes et les massacres: Tenez bon. Le monde commence à ouvrir les yeux. Votre douleur n’est plus invisible. Votre combat n’est plus solitaire. Nous marchons pour vous. Nous marcherons encore. Jusqu’à ce que justice soit faite. Jusqu’à ce que la paix revienne. Jusqu’à ce que plus jamais un enfant banyamulenge ou tutsi ne soit tué simplement parce qu’il existe. Nous sommes debout. Nous sommes nombreux. Et nous ne nous tairons plus. #Banyamulenge #Tutsi #StopGenocideDRC #MarchForJustice

I’m truly grateful for this recognition and all the support—thank you!
My brother and friend, now #Honorable #Mandela #Gapala (@M_gapala), has been commissioned a #KENTUCKY #COLONEL, “the highest title of honor bestowed by the Governor of Kentucky” in the United States. Hon. Mandela, you have lived out the legacy of the Legendary Nelson Mandela. It makes sense now why you were named after him. Congratulations, dear brother, for this amazing accomplishment. I can’t wait to celebrate more in the future. Umwana w’i Mulenge, komeza utere imbere! Uri ishema ry’Abanyamulenge! 👌

Over 70% of the world’s cobalt comes from the DRC,where children work in hazardous conditions.This mining powers your tech but at a devastating human cost. As the DRC gvt seeks to balance mining with peace through global partnerships, accountability in the supply chain is Vital.

President @FelixUdps has two critical steps to stabilize the DRC: 1Engage AFC/M23 in direct dialogue to pursue a political resolution. 2. Strengthen diplomatic ties with neighboring countries to ease tensions. A political solution remains the most viable path forward.#DRC #Peace
