  • A woman peacekeeper was killed Monday during an attack by a rebel group on a UN military camp in DR Congo's volatile east, sources said. The 28-year-old soldier was killed when the base in Kiliya in the Beni region was attacked, Malawi's defence ministry said in a possible pointer to her nationality. The base housed a rapid action force and was located on the southeastern outskirts of the city of Beni on a road leading to the Ugandan border. A UN source speaking on condition of anonymity told AFP "a woman blue helmet was killed in an attack on a MONUSCO base by presumed rebels of the ADF", or the Allied Democratic Forces -- the most dangerous of scores of armed groups operating in the eastern DR Congo. A historically Ugandan Islamist group, the ADF is the bloodiest of scores of armed militias that roam the region, many of them a legacy of two regional wars in the 1990s. The ADF is linked to the so-called Islamic State (IS) group, the United States said last month. According to the Kivu Security Tracker, an NGO that monitors violence in the DRC's troubled east, the group has killed more than 1,200 civilians in the Beni area alone since 2017. In December 2017, the ADF killed 15 Tanzanian UN peacekeepers in their base in Beni. In December the following year, seven other blue helmets were killed in an ADF ambush. bmb-hba/ach/bp
