Ivory Coast: 2 dead in protest as crisis deepens
None
At least two protesters died Monday during an opposition demonstration that turned violent in Ivory Coast, witnesses said, deepening the crisis sparked by the president's dissolution of the government earlier this month.
The protests came after top opposition leaders refused to join a new coalition government. Meanwhile, Burkina Faso's president arrived in Abidjan on Monday to start a series of crisis negotiations with the presidential camp and the opposition. Opposition leaders invited Blaise Compaore to mediate the talks. (AP)
