TL;DR

At least 41 people, mostly students, were killed and six others were abducted when about 20 members of the ISIS-linked Allied Democratic Forces (ADF) rebel group attacked a school in western Uganda. The ADF began fighting against the government after being founded in the mid-90s and was sanctioned by the United States and the United Nations in 2014 for terrorist activities in the region, including attacks on children. The military suspects more dead bodies may be found, but said there was no one still alive trapped in the school.
