Liberia pledges to prevent attacks on I. Coast from its territory

Liberian gov’t says it is deeply concerned by incident where men thought to be Liberians attacked an Ivorian army base.

Liberia has pledged to prevent rebel attacks from its territory on neighbouring Ivory Coast, where security sources reported that Liberian documents were found on assailants raiding a military camp outside Abidjan. The Ivorian army said it killed three armed men and captured another during Wednesday’s pre-dawn attack on the N’dotre base, with security sources adding a Liberian passport and driver’s licence were found on two of the dead assailants. “The government of Liberia is deeply concerned over an incident where some men believed to be Liberians launched an armed attack on a military barrack in neighbouring Cote d’Ivoire,” Information Minister Ledgerhood Rennie said on Friday, citing the documents purporting to show they were Liberian.
