Ugandan soldiers among five dead in DR Congo attack

BENI: Rebels backed by the Islamic State group have killed two Ugandan soldiers in an attack that also left two civilians and a suspected assailant dead in eastern DR Congo, authorities said on Saturday.Two truck drivers, a Kenyan and a Congolese, were shot dead Friday night by IS-affiliated Allied Democratic Forces (ADF) at a car park in Kasindi, Beni territory, said Barthelemy Kambale, a North Kivu provincial civil servant.A fifth dead body was assumed to be an assailant, he told AFP.Kasindi was the scene of a Pentecostal church bombing blamed on the ADF which killed about 15 people last January, and for which IS claimed responsibility.Uganda and the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) launched a joint offensive in 2021 against the ADF to drive the militants out of their Congolese strongholds, but attacks have continued.Originally fielding mainly Muslim Ugandan rebels, the ADF gained a foothold in the region in the 1990s and are accused of slaughtering thousands of civilians.“The ADF
