Mai-Mai Kata Katanga, also called Mai-Mai Bakata Katanga, is a mai-mai rebel group in the Democratic Republic of the Congo which advocates the independence of the Congo's Katanga Province. It was formed shortly after the group's leader, Gédéon Kyungu Mutanga, escaped from prison in September 2011 where he was serving a sentence for crimes against humanity committed by his supporters between 2002 and 2006 in central Katanga. Kata Katanga means "cut [e.g. secede] Katanga" in Swahili. It has been estimated that, at its height in 2013, the Kata Katanga rebels numbered approximately 3,000 of whom most were based in Mitwaba Territory.

  • Mai-Mai Kata Katanga, also called Mai-Mai Bakata Katanga, is a mai-mai rebel group in the Democratic Republic of the Congo which advocates the independence of the Congo's Katanga Province. It was formed shortly after the group's leader, Gédéon Kyungu Mutanga, escaped from prison in September 2011 where he was serving a sentence for crimes against humanity committed by his supporters between 2002 and 2006 in central Katanga. Kata Katanga means "cut [e.g. secede] Katanga" in Swahili. It has been estimated that, at its height in 2013, the Kata Katanga rebels numbered approximately 3,000 of whom most were based in Mitwaba Territory. Kata Katanga was a participant in the Katanga insurgency. Its most significant operation occurred on 23 March 2013 when 200 rebels entered Lubumbashi, the provincial capital of Katanga and the Congo's second city, carrying the flag of the former secessionist state of Katanga (1960–63). At least 35 people died before the rebels surrendered to United Nations (UN) peacekeepers. As a result of the conflict, nearly 400,000 people from Katanga live in camps as internally displaced persons. In August 2013, the United Nations mission in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, MONUSCO, rescued 82 children, some as young as eight, who had been forcibly recruited by the militia as child soldiers. MONUSCO claimed that a total of 163, including 22 girls, had been freed since the beginning of the year. The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs said that the effects of the Kata Katanga's insurgency had spread to half of Katanga's 22 territories by March 2013. Kata Katanga violence declined after 2013 and, in 2015, Kyungu announced that he would create a political party to stand in the anticipated elections in 2017. In October 2016, Kyungu himself and several hundred rebels surrendered their weapons in a ceremony in Lubumbashi. His party is the (Mouvement des Indépendantistes Révolutionnaires Africains, MIRA). Kata Katanga remains active and made several "incursions" into towns and cities in Katanga. Three government soldiers and two rebels were killed during a confrontation in Lubumbashi in October 2019. Several further incursions were made into towns across Katanga on 29 March 2020 in which 30 rebels were killed. A further attack in Lubumbashi took place on 25 September 2020 in which 16 rebels and three soldiers were killed. In the attack, the militia again used the Katanga flag and were armed primarily with machetes. On 29 January 2022, about 100 Mai Mai Kata Katanga fighters under Gédéon captured Mitwaba in Mitwaba Territory; the rebels used the opportunity to once more declare the intention to restore Katanga's independence. They retreated from the area before security forces could respond effectively. FARDC claimed that some rebels had surrendered as the remainder withdrew. (en)

Kata Katanga é um dos participantes da insurgência em Catanga. Sua operação mais significativa ocorreu em 23 de março de 2013, quando 200 rebeldes entraram em Lubumbashi, capital da província de Katanga e a segunda maior cidade do Congo, carregando a bandeira do Estado secessionista do Catanga (1960-1963). Pelo menos 35 pessoas morreram antes de os rebeldes se renderem às forças de paz da Organização das Nações Unidas (ONU). Como resultado do conflito, quase 400.000 pessoas de Catanga vivem em campos como pessoas deslocadas internamente. Em agosto de 2013, a missão da ONU na República Democrática do Congo, a MONUSCO, resgatou 82 crianças, algumas com apenas oito anos, que haviam sido recrutadas à força pela milícia como crianças-soldados. A MONUSCO afirma que um total de 163, incluindo 22 meninas, foram libertadas desde o começo do ano. O Escritório das Nações Unidas para a Coordenação de Assuntos Humanitários afirmou que os efeitos humanitários se propagaram para a metade dos 22 territórios de Catanga. A violência do Kata Katanga diminuiu depois de 2013 e, em 2015, Kyungu anunciou que criaria um partido político para participar das próximas eleições . Em outubro de 2016, o próprio Kyungu e várias centenas de rebeldes entregaram suas armas em uma cerimônia em Lubumbashi. (pt)
