Central African Republic soldiers lynch suspected former rebel - Africa News
In a gruesome example of how far Central African Republic still has to go after 10 months of violence and chaos, soldiers fresh from a security address by the president publically stab and torch a suspected former rebel. Also, several miners are still missing almost 2,000 meters underground in a blazing shaft near Johannesburg. And Kenya is accused of deliberately trying to wreck the ICC's case against President Kenyatta by obstructing the prosecutors' investigation. 02/05/2014 AFRICA NEWS- published: 05 Feb 2014

Central African Republic: A divided country - BBC News
Is the Central African Republic now a permanently fractured state, divided along religious lines? Some reports have described the situation in CAR as one in which genocide could easily break out. A BBC team has been there, against a backdrop of continuing violence between Christian and Muslim militias, to assess the situation on the ground, and how effectively the peacekeeping forces deployed there are holding apart the two rival armed groups. Outside the capital Bangui there’s mostly no infrastructure – no covered roads, no running water, no sanitation, no electricity. We recorded our progress along the way.

The past few months have been extremely violent, and as time goes by, Bangui has become increasingly dangerous for the Muslim population.

Crisis in the Central African Republic: Dispatch One
Crisis in the Central African Republic: Dispatch One
They went to the airport when the massacres began. Residents of Bangui, the capital of the Central African Republic, knew that French soldiers were stationed at Bangui M'Poko International Airport. And so when the latest round of fighting in the city began last week, they fled to the airport, hoping the soldiers would offer them protection. We landed at M'Poko five days later. The sectarian fighting that has led CAR, one of the poorest countries in the world, to the brink of collapse began last March when Michel Djotodia and his loose rebel alliance (known as the Séléka) stormed Bangui and ousted President François Bozizé. Djotodia appointed himself president and tried to integrate the Séléka into the armed forces, but it didn't work. Even Djotodia admitted that he didn't have control over most of the rebels, many of whom are said to be mercenaries from neighboring Chad and Sudan. Bands of mostly Muslim Séléka rebels are now terrorizing the majority Christian country, raping and murdering civilians as they roam. Civilians have formed their own "anti-balaka" militias — balaka means machete or sword — to fight back. Meanwhile, many of those who aren't fighting have sought refuge in the only places they consider safe: houses of worship. And the Muslim civilian minority fears reprisals by the anti-balaka forces after nine months of Séléka rule. It's important to note that many people with firsthand knowledge of the war have told us that the religious aspect of the conflict — Muslim rebels vs. Christian civilians — is overblown. They say this is not an ideological war, but rather a war of identity that goes back generations. Regardless of the root causes, the United Nations and other prominent NGOs speculate that the situation could become far worse.

Anti-Balaka militia on the revenge path in the Central African Republic - BBC News
In the Central African Republic, villages are emptying as Muslims flee to nearby Chad for safety. They are under attack from a Christian militia, the anti-Balaka, who say they are taking revenge for atrocities committed against their communities by a Muslim militia force. And civilians are bearing the brunt of this revenge. In one village west of the capital Bangui, the violence is targeting even those who have tried to keep their communities out of harms way, as Andrew Harding found out.

The incident reflected the growing complexity of the situation in the Central African Republic, a former French colony plunged into chaos last year after a coalition of mostly Muslim rebels ousted President Francois Bozize. They have since been forced out of power, but Christian and Muslim militias continue to battle for control. Human rights investigators said the March 29 incident began when Chadian national army soldiers entered Bangui in a convoy of several military pick-up trucks. They entered a crowded market where shoppers included women and children, and opened fire, a U.N. report said Friday. "As panic-stricken people fled in all directions, the soldiers allegedly continued firing indiscriminately," said Rupert Colville, spokesman for the U.N.'s office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights. "Several sources told the investigating team that they believed the Chadian force had entered Bangui to extract remaining Chadians and other Muslim inhabitants in order to save them from further attacks by (Christian militias)," Colville said. The U.N. said the soldiers who were responsible for the Bangui attack were Chadian soldiers but not among those who are part of the African-led International Support Mission peacekeeping mission that's trying to stabilize the Central African Republic. "It seems they have gone straight back to Chad without being apprehended," Colville said of the attackers. About 850 Chadian soldiers are part of the 6,000-strong peacekeeping presence, but on Thursday, Chad's foreign ministry issued a statement saying the country planned to withdraw its troops from the force, according to CNN French affiliate BFMTV. "Despite the sacrifices we have made, Chad and Chadians have been targeted in a gratuitous and malicious campaign that blamed them for all the suffering in (Central African Republic)," said a statement from Chad's foreign ministry.
