Description | After the end of the Bangui Forum, what started as peaceful protests to demand the release of an anti-Balaka leader and the resignation of the president turned into riots as angry anti-Balaka leaders felt their demands were not being taken into account. Gunfire was heard, grenades went off, and barricades were raised, while MINUSCA forces responded with tear gas. Some witnesses reported anti-Balaka and former Seleka protesting together. |
