Suspected rebels have killed at least 16 people in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo, an official said Tuesday.
The death toll is set to rise should the attackers kill more while retreating, said Remy Paluku Lumande, the traditional chief in Musuku village where the massacre occurred late Monday.
Musuku is located some 28 kilometers from the town of Beni. Suspected rebels had hacked 36 people to death in the same area on Saturday, dpa reported.
More than 250 people have been killed in the Beni area since October.
