In Central African Republic, ten more people have died from wounds sustained during Tuesday’s attack on a church, bringing the toll to 26, the Red Cross said today.
Unidentified armed assailants attacked the Notre Dame de Fatima church in the capital Bangui with grenades and guns during morning mass, initially killing at least 15 and critically wounding scores of others.
The number of dead is expected to rise further, said Antoine Mbao Bogo, president of the Central African Republican Red Cross. He said, they have counted 99 seriously wounded, some of them are being treated. And some are dying because the there was nothing to be done, despite the work of the doctors, he added.
