History

An armed group raided Banangui and looted civilian properties on 12 March 2017.[1] On 17 May 2017, LRA militias attacked Banangui. They abducted 16 people and looted food from the village. Later, four men escaped and LRA released all women hostages.[2][3] On 22 November 2018, a clash between Anti-balaka and UPC caused the villagers to flee Banangui and seek refuge in Dembia.[4][5]
