From the Street: Protesting supporters of Cote D’ivoire’s president Laurent Gbagbo have burnt a United Nations truck, as tensions rise in the capital, Abidjan.
But the UN reports that six of their trucks have been attacked. Three UN peacekeepers have also been injured, according to media reports.
The UN and the international community recognize Gbagbo’s opponent, Guattara as the legitimate president.
UN boss, Ban ki Moon has denounced the attacks, calling the action crimes under international law.
