Viewing cable 08KINSHASA965, SITUATION REPORT FOR DRC - NOVEMBER 4, 2008,

If you are new to these pages, please read an introduction on the structure of a cable as well as how to discuss them with others. See also the FAQs

Understanding cables
Every cable message consists of three parts:
  • The top box shows each cables unique reference number, when and by whom it originally was sent, and what its initial classification was.
  • The middle box contains the header information that is associated with the cable. It includes information about the receiver(s) as well as a general subject.
  • The bottom box presents the body of the cable. The opening can contain a more specific subject, references to other cables (browse by origin to find them) or additional comment. This is followed by the main contents of the cable: a summary, a collection of specific topics and a comment section.
To understand the justification used for the classification of each cable, please use this WikiSource article as reference.

Discussing cables
If you find meaningful or important information in a cable, please link directly to its unique reference number. Linking to a specific paragraph in the body of a cable is also possible by copying the appropriate link (to be found at theparagraph symbol). Please mark messages for social networking services like Twitter with the hash tags #cablegate and a hash containing the reference ID e.g. #08KINSHASA965.

Security Situation in Goma 
-------------------------- 
 
2.  (SBU) MONUC continues to reinforce Goma, to include armored 
personnel carriers at key locations, although troop levels appear to 
be less than optimal.  MONUC military contacts said they are looking 
into options for redeploying peacekeepers to Goma.  In particular, 
the lines of command and operation for the Pakistani battalion in 
South Kivu have been extended northwards into North Kivu, thereby 
extending their field of operations without submitting to Indian 
command (which heretofore had been responsible for all of North 
Kivu). 
 
3.  (SBU) USAID officer TDY in Goma/Gisenyi attended a UN security 
briefing today, at which it was reported that most of the area 
around Goma was calm November 3, with the exception of fighting 
reported in Kashunga, north of Mweso (100 kilometers west of Goma) 
between the FARDC and CNDP. 
 
4.  (SBU) At Nyanzale (reftels), the small FARDC presence had fled 
when they heard of an eventual CNDP movement towards the area. 
Although there was no fighting reported there and CNDP troops have 
not entered Nyanzale, NGO's have reported that it has been emptied 
of its population, including IDP's, since November 3.  Mercy Corps 
evacuated its staff from Nyanzale.  Additionally, the CNDP is 
bringing in reinforcements around Mushaki, approximately 30 
kilometers west of Goma, which is of concern to humanitarian 
workers. 
 
5.  (SBU) The CNDP released a letter today to SRSG Alan Doss, under 
Nkunda's signature, noting that the ceasefire declared by the CNDP 
is in danger, mostly because of MONUC's inability to stop 
cooperation between the FARDC and the FDLR. 
 
6.  (SBU) The UNHCR office in Kinshasa told PolCouns and Poloff 
today that Guatemalan Special Forces soldiers are ensuring security 
at the Goma airport.  Additionally, up to 5,000 FARDC soldiers and 
their families have fled to Minova, just over the border in South 
Kivu, and there is concern as to what instability this movement 
might bring.  UNHCR emphasized that the security situation in Goma 
is tenuous, due to the proximity of the CNDP to the town, and that 
only essential staff are operating there. 
 
Humanitarian Developments 
------------------------- 
 
7.  (SBU) WFP has begun delivering food in some locations.  NGO 
contacts in Goma report continued pillaging of items in the field 
such as medical stocks, but the FARDC appears to have returned most 
of the vehicles they had commandeered from NGO's.  Separately, the 
Belgian government reportedly is sending in two planes of food and 
other humanitarian items, which should arrive today or soon 
thereafter. 
 
8.  (SBU) The UNHCR office also noted that the UN convoy to Rutshuru 
on November 3 (ref B) found that all three camps in the area had 
been emptied of their inhabitants, and shelters burned.  There is 
strong evidence that the CNDP forced the camps' inhabitants to 
return home, on the pretext that the situation was now secure. 
Rutshuru is under CNDP control, according to UNHCR.  UNHCR 
emphasized that the passage of this convoy to CNDP area was a 
substantive public relations boon for the rebel group, which it 
exploited. 
 
9.  (SBU) The UNHCR office reported that 10,000 refugees have fled 
to Uganda over the past several weeks, but maintained that only 50 
had gone to Rwanda.  These latter appeared to be waiting near the 
border for security to improve to return to the DRC. 
 
Political Developments 
---------------------- 
 
10.  (SBU) A MONUC Kinshasa contact reported to Poloff that UN 
Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon should arrive in Kinshasa on November 
9, following a trip to Kigali on November 6 or 7.  The UNSG will 
attempt to facilitate a meeting between Presidents Kabila and 
Kagame. 
 
11.  (U) The recently named AU envoy (ref A) is Ibrahima Fall, 
 
KINSHASA 00000965  002 OF 002 
 
 
former Senegalese foreign minister, who was also previously Kofi 
Annan's Special Representative for the Great Lakes Region and 
Assistant Secretary-General at UN headquarters. 
 
12.  (SBU) MONUC contacts in Goma report that ex-combatants continue 
to show up at the military camp at Nyaleke.  The facilitation will 
meet soon to continue planning the process of dealing with 
ex-combatants.
