Power struggle escalates in Cote d'Ivoire

  • 12 years ago
In Cote d'Ivoire, forces loyal to incumbent president Laurent Gbagbo have launched attacks against supporters of his rival, Alassane Ouatarra.

Gbagbo has refused to step down after presidential elections in November, which international observers say Ouattara won.

More than 400 people have been killed since the disputed election.
