  • The Daesh-linked Allied Democratic Forces (ADF) launched a deadly assault on the village of Bafwakoa in Ituri province, killing at least 43 civilians.

  • This Ugandan terrorist group operates across the porous border between Uganda and the Democratic Republic of Congo.

  • The nighttime attack involved arson and machete killings, with several individuals reported missing or held hostage by the militants.

  • Congolese forces are struggling to contain the ADF, which avoids direct combat and targets civilians to undermine peace efforts in the region.
  • The ADF avoids direct combat with the army and all its partners; that's why they attack the population in a way that sabotages peace efforts and acts of revenge against the population, thus reprisals against our people.
    — Lt. Jules Ngongo, spokesman for the Armed Forces of the Democratic Republic of Congo in Ituri, said by telephone.
