Fourteen suspected militiamen and one soldier have been killed in a resurgence of violence in DR Congo.
Fourteen suspected militiamen and one soldier have been killed in a resurgence of violence in DR Congo’s troubled Kasai region, a local leader said today.
“Kamwina Nsapu militiamen arrived in the administrative centre of Lombelu (on Monday) and made a surprise attack on an army combat patrol,” Andre Kapiola, Lombelu sector chief in Kasai Central.
Violence in Kasai first erupted after a tribal chieftain known as the Kamwina Nsapu, who rebelled against the regime of President Joseph Kabila, was killed in August 2016.
