DRC: Crisis in North Kivu "ignored", say activists

"Few humanitarian organisations, despite the availability of funding, have stepped forward to help" civilians in Congo Kinshasa's eastern North Kivu province, activists complain in a new report. More than 160,000 Congolese have abandoned their homes in North Kivu since January 2007, when Tutsi warlord Laurent Nkunda began deploying troops across the province.
