IS Claims Pentecostal Church Bomb Attack That Killed at Least 14, Injured 63
Debris are all that's left of a deadly church service. In north-east of the Democratic Republic of Congo, investigation is progressing after a bomb exploded in a Pentecostal church and killed at least 14 people, Sunday. Congolese police and mine expert from the UN combed the blast area on Monday as Uganda forces securing the zone. The Islamic State group claimed responsibility for the attack calling it relation against the DRC's military operations againts its 'fighters.' Rebel organisation ADF is believed to have links to the Islamic State group. After an initial toll of 10 people and more than three dozen wounded, the toll rose on Monday. Congolese authorities put it at 14 dead and at least 63 wounded. The extremists alleged the bomb killed 20 Christians. Survivors and witnesses said the blast severed some people's limbs from their bodies. "After the songs by a choir from our church, the preacher of the day took the floor and while he was preaching we heard an explosion and that's how I found myself injured," a congregant remembered. Violence has wracked eastern Congo for decades as more than 120 armed groups and self-defence militias fight for ore, influence and money. |

Such pointless devastation and killing of innocents. Fucking pointless. Killing just to kill. |

(On a serious note, I'm sorry for these people and their families—delusional as they were.) Civilians should not be fucked with—unless they are invaders and colonizers, which is clearly not the case here. R.I.P. |
