Additional Information / Shotlist Since 23 August 2013, governmental forces (FARDC) and Front for Patriotic Resistance of Ituri militia (FRPI) have been battling over control of the territory of South Irumu in Province Orientale, DRC. This situation has a direct effect on the population. More than 100,000 people have been forced to flee their homes and are living in fear of gunfire and systematic looting. “The populations have simply been abandoned,” says Fred Meylan, MSF emergency coordinator in Geti.
