At least 15 people have been killed in an attack attributed to the Codeco community Militia in Ituri, northeastern Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). The attack took place in Gobu, a landlocked area, and lasted for over two hours. The militia is said to be targeting civilians, with a recent attack taking place on a church where people were praying. The conflict between the Hema and Lendu tribes in Ituri has been ongoing since 2017, resulting in the deaths of thousands of civilians and the displacement of over 1.5 million people.
