More Than 80 Christians Slaughtered in North-Eastern D. R. Congo

Islamist terrorists have claimed the killing of more than 80 Christians in several armed assaults in north-eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC).

In the deadliest attack, an estimated 60 “Christian combatants” were killed by fighters from Islamic State Central Africa Province (ISCAP) in a May 5 attack in Beni Territory on the border of North Kivu and Ituri provinces.

In recent months, Islamic State propaganda has used the word “combatants” to describe Christians who have refused to accept either conversion to Islam or dhimmi status as subjugated people. In classical Islam, those who accept such a status must pay the jizya tax to their Islamic conquerors.

A statement published on Islamic State (IS, ISIS, ISIL, Daesh) social media channels declared, “Let the worshipers of the cross know that they have no security except by submitting willingly or paying the jizya in humiliation.”

Two days later a further 15 Christians were killed in a third attack in Beni, followed on Sunday, May 10, by the murder of nine and the abduction of six others in the village of Makumu, Ituri.

A recent report highlighted the “extensive brutality” carried out by ISCAP (formerly known as the Allied Democratic Forces or ADF), including mass killings, forced labor, torture, abuse, and sexual violence.

ISCAP has claimed the killing of nearly 1,000 Christians in north-eastern DRC since their long-running campaign of violence escalated in December 2024.

Up to 60 believers were killed in Mambasa Territory, Ituri, on April 1 after rejecting what ISCAP called a “generous offer.”

The FReeper Allahu Akhbar Chorus that claims to be Christian and opposes absolutely anything any Jew does anywhere in the world NEVER* notices when their brethren are slaughtered daily by muslims. But if a Jew is within a few hundred miles of a Christian’s hangnail, it’s The Jews’ Fault! (TM).

*(with one lone exception in the last year by my observation)
