Matari Airport — Isiro, Democratic Republic of the Congo

IRP is Matari Airport, serving Isiro in the Haut-Uele province of the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Isiro sits in a remote, densely forested region of the northeastern DRC where road infrastructure is limited and often impassable during rainy seasons, making air transport critical for connecting the town to Kinshasa and other Congolese cities. The airport supports humanitarian, missionary, and NGO operations that are common throughout this part of Central Africa, alongside limited commercial passenger service. Isiro's economy has historically involved agriculture and mining activity in surrounding areas, and Matari Airport functions as the primary logistical link for goods, aid supplies, and personnel serving this isolated corner of the Congo Basin rainforest.
