CAR violence: Many dead in Bangui as UN votes for French force

Dozens of people - possibly as many as 60 or more - have been killed in fierce fighting in the capital of the Central African Republic (CAR), Bangui. The city was reportedly attacked by supporters of Francois Bozize, who was ousted as president by rebels in March, plunging the country into chaos. The UN Security Council has just voted to allow French troops to join an African peacekeeping force in CAR.
