[Regnum] At least 14 people have died in an attack by gunmen on a village in the southwest of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DR Congo), Agence France Presse (AFP) reports, citing local authorities.
The Allied Democratic Forces, also known since 2019 as ISIS’ Central African Province (ISCAP) abuse the civilians in the eastern part of the DRC, but they’ve reportedly been expanding their area of operations... | The attack took place in the province of Kwango, near the border with Angola. According to sources, the militants had machetes and firearms.
AFP noted that the attack followed the recent arrest of police officers. Local authorities are taking steps to bring the situation under control.
As IA Regnum reported, in April militants attacked the village of Musandaba in North Kivu province in eastern DR Congo. As a result of the incident, 22 local residents were killed. The terrorist group "Islamic State" (an organization whose activities are banned in the Russian Federation) claimed responsibility for the attack . On July 27, the Armed Forces of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (FARDC) accused the Rwandan army of violating the state border. The command of the Congolese troops called the actions of the Rwandan side " intervention " aimed at destabilizing and violating the territorial integrity of the republic.
