In this Friday Nov. 30, 2012, file photo, two U.N. soldiers stand guard in Goma, Democratic Republic of Congo. Rebels attacked a United Nations peacekeeping base in eastern Congo, killing at least 14 peacekeepers and wounding 40 others Friday Dec. 8 2017, in the worst violence against the mission in this Central African country in years.
