KINSHASA: The Daesh group has claimed responsibility for an attack in eastern DR Congo that killed five people, according to a US-based intelligence group.
The SITE group, which specializes in monitoring radical terrorist groups, said on Saturday the Daesh Central Africa Province (ISCAP) had claimed responsibility for the attack in the Tshopo province.
“The Daesh stated that fighters shot at a militia post in a village in Tshopo, killing three personnel, then turned their guns on Christians inside the village,” the group said in a statement.
