The attacks came two weeks after gunmen raided a Protestant church in Sirgadji village in the north-eastern province of Soum. Since February two other pastors have lost their lives in different attacks. Elie Zoré, 48, leader of the Assemblies of God Church of Bouloutou, near the main town of Arbinda in the far north, in the province of Soun, was killed in April.
