35 killed in rebel attack in northeast DR Congo
BUNIA: At least 35 people were killed Sunday in an attack by Allied Democratic Forces rebels in northeastern DR Congo, ending a months-long period of regional calm, local sources said. The rebels, originally formed from former Ugandan fighters and which pledged allegiance to Daesh in 2019, raided a Catholic church in the town of Komanda where worshippers were gathered for prayer, residents said. “We heard gunfire near the parish church ... so far we have seen 35 bodies,” Dieudonne Katanabo, an Umoja neighborhood elder, said.
