Congo: 14 UN soldiers killed, another 40 wounded.

(Kinshasa) Rebels attacked a United Nations base in eastern Congo, killing at least 14 peacekeepers and wounding 53 others in the deadliest single assault on a U.N. mission in recent history.
The MONUSCO (United Nations Organization Stabilization Mission in the Democratic Republic of the Congo) base is located about 27 miles from the town of Beni, which has been repeatedly hit by the Allied DemocraticForces (ADF) terrorist group.


The ADF was formed by puritanical Muslim Ugandans of the Tablighi Jamaat group who merged with the remnants of another rebel group, the National Army for the Liberation of Uganda The main figure of the group was Jamil Mukulu, a former Protestant who converted to Islam. I wonder why nobody is mentioning the faith of the ADF?
