The United States strongly condemned an attack on Friday on a displacement camp in eastern Congo that killed at least nine people, the State Department said in a statement.

The statement said the attack came from positions held by Rwandan Defense Forces (RDF) and the Rwanda-backed M23 rebel group. The U.S. is "gravely concerned about the recent RDF and M23 expansion" in eastern Congo, it said.
