notes: On January 10th, the FARDC repelled an attack by the ALPC in Brimu, periphery of Ingbokolo in Aru (Ituri). The attack was launched against the positions of the military in retaliation for the killing of their leader last November during a FARDC operation in the area. The clash lasted for an hour, after which the rebels fled, leaving behind an AK-47. The positions of the military in Brimu were reinforced to ensure the population's safety.
