  remained a priority, in line with Action for Peacekeeping commitments.  During the
  
  reporting period, a total of 215 incidents against United Nations personnel and
  
  facilities were recorded, including 11 incidents related to armed conflict, 81 related
  
  to crime, 59 related to civil unrest and 59 to hazards. Of the personnel affected, 39
  
  were international staff (28 men and 11 women) and 74 national staff members
  
  (69 men and 5 women). This represents a significant increase compared with the
  
  previous reporting period, driven to a large extent by anti-MONUSCO protests in
  
  North Kivu Province in November and December 2019. During the reporting period,
  
  22 incidents that had a direct impact on the Ebola response were recorded, including
  
  the killing of three public health employees in Biakato.
