DR CONGO: Report Retracted
Each week, staff members from Voice of the Martyrs Canada research news reports to provide valuable and accurate information about ways you can pray for persecuted Christians around the world. Without the ability to have personnel in each of the nations, we work together with reliable partners who have similar goals in supporting our brothers and sisters in Christ.
Regrettably, there are times when, for any of numerous reasons, we receive inaccurate information. Despite due diligence, errors occur, which we deeply regret. Such appears to be the case with the recent incident in DR Congo reported on February 27th. Further investigation by a reliable partner reveals that the incident, as reported, does not appear to have occurred.
While this specific incident appears to be erroneous, the situation in DR Congo, particularly in the North Kivu province, is extremely dangerous. Deaths at the hands of rebel groups happen frequently and Christians are regularly targeted because of the militant Islamist views of the rebels. Continued prayers for Christians in DR Congo is urged.
