BENI, Democratic Republic of Congo (Reuters) - A militia group in west Democratic Republic of Congo killed nine soldiers in an army camp in a village on Saturday, the army spokesman and a chief of a nearby village said on Monday, in a province that has seen communal fighting over land since 2022.
The attack took place in Kwamouth territory in Mai-Ndombe province, where two rival communities - the Teke and the Yaka - have been fighting over land along the Congo River.
