Terrorist forces are sweeping rapidly through large tracts of land in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and shifting the frontlines of a decades-long conflict that has killed about 6 million people and displaced many more. Local sources revealed the massacre of 70 Christians in eastern DRC near the country’s border with Uganda and Rwanda. While no group has formally taken responsibility for the attack, reports indicate that the Allied Democratic Forces (ADF) were responsible. The militia reportedly detained many Christian villagers before tying them up in a local protestant church and decapitating them with machetes. The ADF is one of many African terrorist organizations aligned with the jihadist Islamic State movement. It stands out among the country’s 120 militant groups for its brutal tactics and strong animosity toward Christianity.
Please pray…
Pray that the Lord will comfort our Christian brothers and sisters who have lost loved ones in the recent attacks.
Pray that encourage the Christians in the DRC so that they do not lose heart.
Pray that the government will be able to repel the Islamic terrorists and protect its citizens.
