Officials in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo say about 80 people are missing after a militia ambushed a convoy, killing at least three people and setting fire to 16 vehicles.
The attack in Ituri province has been blamed on the rebel Allied Democratic Forces (ADF).
The convoy was being escorted by the army and UN peacekeepers due to insecurity along the main highway linking Ituri with North Kivu province.
The ADF is an Islamist group accused of killing thousands of people in recent years.
