notes: On 20 October 2020, a large number of ADF militants (led by Amigo and Mulalo) clashed with prison guards and FARDC soldiers during a coordinated attack by these rebels against the central prison and an adjacent military base in Beni town (Beni, Nord-Kivu). At least 2 prisoners were shot and killed and 1,300-1,500 were freed by the assailants (mostly ADF and Mayi-Mayi combatants). Only around 100 inmates stayed in the jail and 20 returned later that day. The Islamic State claimed later that 7 FARDC soldiers were killed and many more wounded, but this information has not been confirmed.
