BANGUI (Reuters) – U.N. peacekeepers fired
warning shots in the air to disperse thousands of protestors calling
for the rearming of the Central African Republic’s national army, as at
least one person was killed in a third day of violence.
Some 30 people have been killed and dozens more injured
in the riverside capital Bangui since the murder of a Muslim man sparked
sectarian violence on Saturday in the city patrolled by French and U.N.
troops.
Gunshots were heard throughout the city on Monday
morning. Businesses were shuttered and many residents stayed at home
after clashes continued throughout the night, despite a curfew announced
by the interim government.
