UN Probe Unearths DR Congo Massacre

"It is being described as a massacre that took place away from the eyes of the world and went largely unnoticed even inside the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC).

Days passed before details began to emerge about what had happened in Yumbi, a remote territory in the southwest of the country. A United Nations investigation found an attack happened there on December 16 and 17 over a dispute between two local tribes.

Hundreds of houses were burned down. So far, 535 bodies have been identified.

The acting Yumbi administrator says between 3,000 and 4,000 men were involved in the bloodshed, while only about a dozen men have been arrested so far."

" Great Barrier Reef [Australia] authority gives green light to dump dredging sludge . . . A

million tonnes of spoil to be disposed of

in marine park – prompting

calls for a ban on all offshore dumping."

Following Article Courtesy, GlobalVoices - Written by Ben Smee

19 February 2019

The Great Barrier Reef [Australia] Marine Park Authority has approved the dumping of more than 1m tonnes of dredge spoil near the reef, using a loophole in federal laws that were supposed to protect the marine park.

The Greens senator Larissa Waters has called for the permit – which allows maintenance dredging to be carried out over 10 years at Mackay’s Hay Point port and the sludge to be dumped within the marine park’s boundaries – to be revoked.

“The last thing the reef needs is more sludge dumped on it, after being slammed by the floods recently,” Waters said. “One million tonnes of dumping dredged sludge into world heritage waters treats our reef like a rubbish tip.”
