A dense crowd of hundreds of individuals, predominantly adult males, is captured outdoors in Goma, Democratic Republic of the Congo, under an overcast sky. The individuals are tightly packed, filling the lower two-thirds of the frame. A significant number of people are wearing motorcycle helmets of various colors, including red, black, blue, and orange. Many faces in the crowd exhibit open mouths, suggesting vocalization or shouting. In the upper right, an arm belonging to a person in a black shirt extends over a translucent barrier or windshield, holding a crumpled white piece of fabric, possibly clothing, towards the crowd. Several individuals in the crowd have their hands raised or are holding up mobile phones. The background reveals an urban environment with numerous multi-story buildings, some appearing complete and others in various stages of construction or disrepair, with faint hills visible on the horizon.
