[Rwanda Forum] La mort de Karine Buisset : saurons-nous la vérité ?

La mort de Karine Buisset : saurons-nous la vérité ?

Le 11 mars 2026, Karine Buisset, ressortissante française et travailleuse humanitaire expérimentée de l’UNICEF, a été tuée à Goma, dans l’est de la République démocratique du Congo (RDC). Une frappe de drone a touché un immeuble résidentiel dans le quartier de Himbi — une zone sous le contrôle des forces rebelles du M23 soutenues par la Rwanda Defence Force (RDF). Elle faisait partie des trois personnes tuées dans l’attaque. L’identité et l’affiliation des deux autres victimes n’ont pas été établies publiquement.

Les circonstances de sa mort n’étaient pas ambiguës. Goma avait été prise par le M23 en janvier 2026. Le quartier de Himbi, où la frappe s’est produite, n’était pas une zone militaire de première ligne mais une zone résidentielle. Le bâtiment touché était une structure civile. Le ciblage d’une travailleuse connue de l’UNICEF dans une ville occupée placée sous le contrôle militaire effectif d’une force soutenue par un État désigné par l’ONU n’est pas seulement une tragédie. C’est, au vu des éléments disponibles, un crime de guerre.

Karine Buisset's Death: Will We Know the Truth?

On 11 March 2026, Karine Buisset, a French national and experienced UNICEF humanitarian worker, was killed in Goma, in the eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). A drone strike struck a residential building in the Himbi district — an area under the control of M23 rebel forces backed by the Rwanda Defence Force (RDF). She was one of three people killed in the attack. The identities and affiliations of the other two victims have not been publicly established.

 The circumstances of her death were not ambiguous. Goma had been seized by M23 in January 2026. The Himbi neighbourhood, where the strike occurred, was not a frontline military zone but a residential area. The building struck was a civilian structure. The targeting of a known UNICEF worker in an occupied city under the effective military control of a force supported by a UN-designated State is not merely a tragedy. It is, on the available evidence, a war crime.

 The central question this article examines is not only who killed Karine Buisset, but whether France — the country of her nationality, and a country with a documented pattern of suppressing uncomfortable truths about the Great Lakes region — will pursue that question honestly. The historical record does not inspire confidence.
