This image depicts a mass funeral or memorial service taking place outdoors on an artificial turf sports field in Goma, Democratic Republic of the Congo. In the foreground, positioned to the right, a person in a white full-body protective suit with blue accents and gloves stands, partially obscuring the view to the right. Under a white canopy tent, a row of at least ten dark brown wooden coffins, each draped with the flag of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, are arranged on a white surface, possibly a long table. Several coffins have small, light-colored wooden crosses inserted into their lids, bearing handwritten names such as "FRANC..." and "ARTHU...". In the mid-ground, beyond the coffins and tent, a red carpet extends across the green artificial turf, flanked by white floral arrangements on pedestals. Numerous individuals, identified as attendees or mourners, are gathered on both sides of the carpet and further back on the field. They are dressed in a mix of formal and semi-formal clothing. Additional white canopy tents are visible in the background, likely providing shelter for more attendees. The far background reveals residential buildings with light-colored walls and dark roofs under an overcast sky, indicative of an urban environment.
