Families of the victims of last week's bomb attacks on two camps of displaced people in eastern Congo gathered to mourn their loved ones at a ceremony on Monday evening. The bombings at the Mugunga and Lac Vert displacement camps killed at least 18 people and injured another 32, according to the United Nations. Most of the victims were women and children.
During the ceremony in the city of Goma in the North Kivu Province, mourners sang and lit candles in tribute to the deceased. Alimeti Kigiho, a survivor of the attack, shared his heartbreaking experience of finding his wife and two young children dead in pieces after the explosions.
