Last Sunday’s bombardments on the International University of Africa in Khartoum, Sudan, where the army and paramilitaries have been fighting each other for almost two months, resulted in the deaths of ten Congolese in total.
The information was provided by the Congolese government at a press conference that the minister of communication and media and his counterparts from finance and foreign affairs co-hosted.

The government also asked the Sudanese government for an explanation, according to the head of Congolese diplomacy.

We requested from the Charge d’Affaires that the Sudanese government provide us with explanations and make all necessary arrangements because, as you may have read, regular troops were the ones who bombarded the university campus.

This is so that the bodies can be returned and the government can repatriate them so that our compatriots may be buried with honor and in accordance with our customs, alongside their family members. And the government is attempting to resolve this, according to Christophe Lutundula.
The Minister of Affairs also disclosed that he had called the Sudanese Embassy’s charge d’affaires to deliver the government’s message of sorrow and complaint to him. In addition, he mentioned that preparations are being made for the repatriation of Congolese who reside in Sudan.

Likewise, the government of the Democratic Republic of the Congo is pleading with Sudanese authorities to allow for the opening of a humanitarian corridor so that it can remove its citizens who have been injured and those who are still stuck in Sudan.

General Abdel Fattah Al-Bourhane, head of the army, and General Mohammed Hamdan Daglo, leader of the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (FSR), have been at odds with one another since April 15 as a result of their joint leadership of the coup.
