At least seven peacekeepers and 12 Congolese soldiers killed in clashes with ADF
At least seven UN peacekeepers and 12 Congolese soldiers have been killed in clashes with militias in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The fighting took place near Beni, in the east, and close to the centre of the country’s worst Ebola outbreak.
The peacekeepers were supporting an offensive by local forces against an Islamist group, the Allied Democratic Forces (ADF), officials said.

Serious news and most people are ignoring it.
CNN is sticking pins into Trump like he is some sort of voodoo doll, so do not expect those losers to acknowledge the story or give it much air time until it is too late.
You would think s back door person like Anderson Cooper would care about the growth of Islamic groups.
