At least 23 more people, including children, were injured in Friday's attack and were being treated in a hospital in Bouar, in the northwestern part of the country.The African country has been wracked with such serious religious and ethnic violence, including between Muslims and Christians, that the United Nations has said it fears a genocide could be brewing, and aid groups warn of a humanitarian crisis.The convoy was carrying mostly Muslim families from the village of Vakap when a grenade was launched into the trucks, said officials with Save the Children, a U.K.-based aid group.
This is so terrible to hear about. With already such a place of this, they definently don't need such violence in the atmosphere. Attacks like these need to stop especially when the are effecting the lives of children.

Why can't people just get along?
ReplyDeleteWow, this is so terrible, these religious conflicts are so pointless, i hope this conflict does not evolve in to a bigger feud.
ReplyDeleteIt's pretty contradictory that fights over religious gods that are mostly about peace and getting along with other religions are getting so violent. It'd be a lot easier if people just stuck to their religious beliefs instead of trying to force them on other people.
ReplyDeleteWe don't need gun control here, but they need it over there, that's for sure!!!!!
ReplyDeleteExactly!
