The attack of armed people in western Congo left more than 70 dead

At least 72 people were killed in an attack by armed men on a village in western Congo.

According to Webangah News quoted by Mehr News Agency, according to the Associated Press, at least 72 people were killed after armed men attacked a village in western Congo.

Intensification of violence between ethnic minorities in Kinsale has been going on for two years, and violent clashes between the “Teke” and “Yaka” groups have so far led to the deaths of hundreds of civilians. Is. Stanis Libby, head of a village near the attack site, says that nine security forces were also killed after the latest attack.

Territorial disputes in the “Koamos” region have started since June 2022. Despite the April 2024 ceasefire with the presence of Congolese President Felix Tshisekedi, the conflict between the parties continues and has intensified in recent weeks.

The Congolese army is struggling to contain the rampant violence in the country. The conflict between the government forces and more than 120 militia groups has resulted in many deaths and many of these groups are looking for a share of the gold and other resources of the Kinsale region.
