The US embassy in Kinshasa, the capital of the Democratic Republic of Congo, has been closed due to an alleged terror threat.
A statement released by US embassy Saturday said it had received “credible and specific information of a possible terrorist threat against US government facilities in Kinshasa”.
The DR Congo government spokesman told BBC Afrique’s Poly Muzaila that the US embassy is trying to create panic ahead of elections and that the embassy did not communicate with government security services about the threat.
