Successful Movement Against Anti-MONUSCO Demonstration

edit

The anti-MONUSCO protest spread throughout the Eastern DRC on July 25, 2022. The agitated Congolese nationals vandalized MONUSCO installations and residences of North Kivu and South Kivu.[73] The protestors violently attacked MONUSCO bases in Goma, Beni and Butembo towns. The Force HQ, Level-3 Hospital, Central Log Base, BANENGR Company, and BANATU were overrun by the frantic protestors.[74] The fierce protest lasted for almost three weeks, during which the civilians could cause remarkable damage to UN personnel, materials, and information in these areas.[75] The movement claimed the lives of 36 people, including three MONUSCO members.[76] But no anti-MONUSCO demonstration occurred in Ituri province, the northern section of MONUSCO.[77][78] This was only possible because of the able leadership, proactive decision-making, and prompt action of the Northern Sector Commander Brigadier General Muhsin.[79]

General Muhsin proactively engaged all tiers of the province, like government, political, religious, youth, student leaders, teachers of colleges and universities, and taxi drivers, to support MONUSCO and work alongside the peacekeepers in the time of crisis. As a result, the situation remained peaceful throughout Ituri province even iduringthe time of intense anti-MONUSCO protests in other provinces of eastern DRC.[80] It was only possible for the foresight of Brigadier General Muhsin during such a crucial moment.[81] Admittedly, it ensured much credibility of Bangladeshi peacekeepers in United Nations Peacekeeping Operations and uplifted the name and fame of Bangladesh.
