Ugandan rebels have killed an Indian United Nations peacekeeping soldier and wounded four others in an attack in Nord-Kivu province in the east of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). "An Indian blue helmet was killed and four others wounded, one seriously when their camp at a village in Nord-Kivu was hit by an RPG 7 rocket and came under heavy fire, to which they responded forcefully," a statement from the UN mission in the DRC said. The attack in the early hours of the morning has been blamed on Allied Democratic Forces (ADF) rebels, who are opposed to President Yoweri Museveni's regime in Uganda. The incident took place at Mukungwe, a village south of Beni in the north of the province. Since Saturday, 3,500 DRC Government troops and 600 UN soldiers have been engaged in a joint operation to get the Ugandan rebels out of the DRC, which they use for a rear base.
