At least five people were killed and 15 others wounded in a bomb attack during a service at a Protestant church in the eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). An army spokesman Anthony Mualushay said the attack was likely carried out by the Allied Democratic Forces (ADF), a Ugandan armed group pledging allegiance to ISIL (ISIS). “Despite the security measures put in place, the first indications show that it is the ADF which is behind this bomb attack,” he added.
