Kasheke is a village strategically located in the Kalehe Territory near Lake Kivu in the South Kivu Province of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). Kasheke is 1,475 meters above sea level and is close to Bulengo, Kamabale, Tchofi, and Kabamba villages. The village is occupied by a small population of Bantu agriculturists and fishermen, including the Havu, Tembo, Shi, and Fuliiru people.[1][2][3][4]
Renowned for its cultivation of maize, cassava, banana, and rice, agriculture serves as the primary regional economy, complemented by cotton and coffee plantations.[5][6] Despite its robust agricultural potential, there is currently no agro-industry, although preliminary foundations exist, particularly in coffee and palm oil.[7][8][5]

History
Kasheke has long been the ancestral home to a harmonious blend of diverse Bantu ethnic groups. The region was conventionally inhabited by Havu, Fuliiru and Shi people.[9][10][11][12]
Security and geological problems
On Friday, 28 May 2011, several houses were looted and several taken hostage in the forest as a result of an attack by alleged elements of the FDLR in the Kasheke village in Kalehe Territory.[13]
From Sunday to Monday of 5 March 2012, the FDLR attacked the communities of Kalehe Territory.[14] The rebels made an incursion into the locality of Kasheke at approximately 10 p.m. (local time), coming from Kahuzi-Biéga National Park. The insurgents abducted seven people: four women and three boys, and also took away almost all the village's property.[15]
In August 2015, at least two people were killed in a significant earthquake of at least 5.6 °C on the most extensive scale.[16] A policeman was killed at the Katana State Post, more than 35 kilometers north of Bukavu, and a woman died in Kasheke, both in the crumbling walls of their homes.[17]
In September 2019, three family members were killed by a FARDC soldier.[18] The soldier forced his way into the victim's home, killing the mother and two of her children.[19] He subsequently wounded the father and one of his sons before fleeing.
