Democratic Republic of the Congo authorities must take action to prevent this happening again by addressing the root causes and urgently and impartially investigate the deaths and injuries.

We strongly condemn the murder of Rebecca Cheptegei, the third elite runner to be murdered in Kenya. All suspects were intimate partners of the athletes. No impunity for perpetrators. The trend of #femicide must be stopped. Statement by UN Women Africa unwo.men/j9w250TgStU
