Armed men attacked a prison in Congo's eastern city of Beni on Sunday, killing at least 11 and freeing more than 900 prisoners, a government official said.
Eight prison guards were among the 11 dead, said North Kivu provincial governor Julien Paluku. About 30 prisoners remained in the Kangbayi prison following the afternoon attack, he said.
Paluku announced a curfew in Beni and nearby Butembo. It was not immediately known who carried out the attack, AP reported.
