Extract

The International Committee of the Red Cross has been working actively to come to the help of the apparently numerous victims of the troubles in the Congo. Its efforts have been concentrated particularly on bringing assistance to the civilian population of Stanleyville and the other regions opposed to the Government in Léopoldville. However, the extreme confusion which has been prevailing generally has given rise to some very complex problems. It was for instance difficult even to make contact with the leaders of the insurrection.
