UN: peacekeeper killed in volatile eastern Congo
A United Nations peacekeeper in Congo was killed by an exploding shell, an official said Friday, as rebels in the country's volatile east took a strategic border crossing into Uganda.
The Indian peacekeeper was killed overnight on Thursday as fighters from the M23 rebel group attempted to take the town of Bunagana, said Madnodje Mounoubai, the United Nations spokesman in Congo. (AP)
