Twenty-one people have been killed in an attack on a Catholic church premises in the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo, allegedly by Islamic State-backed rebels.

The attack was carried out by members of the Allied Democratic Force ADF around 1 a.m . Several houses and shops were also burnt.

Earlier this month, the group killed dozens of people in Ituri in what a United Nations spokesperson described as a bloodbath.
