'Rebels kill eleven in DR Congo'

Suspected rebels have killed 11 people in Beni, northeastern Democratic Republic of Congo, news agency Reuters reports.
Local Mayor Nyonyi Bwanakawa told the agency the Allied Democratic Forces (ADF) rebel group was behind the attack.
A local human rights activist said the attackers were armed with machetes and hatchets.
Officials say that at least 1,000 civilians have been killed in similar attacks since 2014.
Independent experts have however blamed DR Congo soldiers for the killings.
DR Congo and Uganda launched a joint military offensive against the ADF in January after the group was blamed for killing 15 Tanzanian peacekeepers during an attack in December.
The ADF was formed in late 1990s by a puritanical Muslim sect in the Ruwenzori mountains of western Uganda.
