The period from 1993 to 2003 is probably one of the most tragic and darkest chapters in the recent history of the Democratic Republic of Congo, which was marked by a series of major political crises, wars and numerous ethnic and regional conflicts that resulted in the deaths of hundreds, if not thousands, of people. During these crises, the country has been prey to numerous violations of international humanitarian law and international human rights law, leading to the commission of international crimes, in particular war crimes, crimes against humanity and even, in some cases, crimes of genocide. Internally, while it is undeniable that some Congolese military justice officials have handed down a small number of courageous decisions on international crimes, defying material, structural and psychological obstacles as well as political pressure, the circumstances nonetheless illustrate the significant operational limitations of our magistrates.
