DR Congo faces logistical, security challenges before pivotal December poll

The Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) is gearing up for high-stakes elections on December 20, with incumbent President Felix Tshisekedi facing a crowded field of challengers that includes the runner-up in the disputed 2018 vote and a Nobel Peace Prize laureate. With five weeks to go before polls open, organisers face a host of challenges as they seek to avoid the delays and confusion that marred the last election five years ago.
