Scores Killed In Fresh 'Congo Massacre' -- Al Jazeera
About 100 people killed in the restive North Kivu region by Ugandan rebels, according to members of parliament.
About 100 people were killed last week in a fresh massacre in the restive east of the Democratic Republic of Congo, blamed by the government on Uganda rebels, members of parliament have said.
The carnage took place on Thursday near Beni in North Kivu province, where mainly Muslim Ugandan rebels have been blamed for killing more than 200 civilians in gruesome machete attacks since October, and where the UN wants "negative forces" to be neutralised.
"I have a figure of 95 bodies buried in a common grave," as well as "nine others that were shown to authorities in a morgue," opposition MP Juma Balikwisha told AFP news agency.
"We still don't have a definitive toll. It lies between 70 and 100 people killed," said Albert Baliesima, an MP for the parliamentary majority backing President Joseph Kabila.
