Country: Democratic Republic of the Congo Source: UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs Please refer to the attached Infographic. The number of incidents affecting humanitarian actors in eastern DRC fell from 33 in March 2026 to 29 in April, a decrease of 12.1 per cent. Of these 29 incidents, 12 (41%) occurred in North Kivu, eight (28%) in South Kivu, six (21%) in Ituri and three (10%) in Tanganyika, while no incident was reported in Maniema. This decline suggests a relative improvement in the operating environment compared with February and March, although North Kivu continued to account for the largest share of reported incidents. In April, no humanitarian worker was killed or kidnapped, while one was injured. Compared with the cumulative distribution of incidents recorded since January 2026, April 2026 showed a higher proportion of incidents in Ituri (19% versus 12%), while South Kivu accounted for a smaller share (26% versus 32%) as did Tanganyika (10% versus 18%). North Kivu remained broadly in line with the cumulative trend (39%). This suggests a relative deterioration of the security situation affecting humanitarian workers in Ituri compared with other provinces. With regard to the incident-type chart in April, burglary, robbery and intrusions remained the largest category, representing 35 % of incidents recorded since January 2026. They were followed by interference and restrictions (32%), intimidation, threats or physical aggression (28%), and other incidents (4%). This continues to point to a risk environment shaped by criminality, operational interference and direct pressure on humanitarian personnel and assets.
