About incidents in Kolwezi

This page tracks every incident our monitoring detects within roughly 65 kilometres of Kolwezi, DR Congo — which means suburbs, industrial areas and surrounding districts are included, not just the city centre.

Because most urban incidents — building collapses, factory fires, gas blasts, road and rail accidents — are never published in any official data feed, we find them by reading local media directly, in the local language, and by geocoding those headlines back to the place they name. That is how a report mentioning Kolwezi ends up on this map instead of being lost in a national average.

So far in 2026, 16 incidents have been recorded in the Kolwezi area, including 0 rated severe or extreme.
