The attackers, according to local sources, carried out various attacks.
“On Friday, a first attack targeted the locality of Zunguluka in the Bundingili groupment around 7 p.m. There, they killed a woman and three children,” say witnesses who specify that fifteen people were kidnapped and twelve houses burned.
The next day, the village of Ndimo in the Dandavilemba groupment was targeted. Four people were killed there, according to residents.
“As if that was not enough, the attackers returned to the same village. They killed eight more people, leaving a total of twelve victims,” regret our sources.
Residents denounce the inaction of the military and administration authorities who, according to them, do not intervene.
“We do not understand why the army does not intervene. The administration authorities for their part seem to turn a blind eye instead of implementing the agreements signed with Uganda to fight together against the ADF group,” they regret.
The military and administration authorities have not yet communicated on the situation.
