After a brief calm, Christians who had fled and resettled in Eastern DRC faced renewed ADF assaults. On May 5, ADF attacks occurred at Katerrain and Mangambo, villages situated along the borders of North Kivu and Ituri Provinces, resulting in at least 24 people killed and several missing. The next night, separate attacks hit Ikaya and Ndalya. According to Alain Siwako, a member of North Kivu provincial parliament, the current death toll is provisional and could rise due to the number of missing residents. This attack triggered massive displacement and spread fear among communities living along the North Kivu-Ituri border.
