Three Tanzanian soldiers on deployment in the Democratic Republic of Congo as part of a Southern African Development Community (SADC) peacekeeping force have been killed in a mortar attack on their station east of the country.

SADC confirmed in a statement late Monday that three other Tanzanian servicemen were also injured in the missile raid.
