ABIDJAN, Ivory Coast — The United Nations yesterday blamed forces loyal to President Laurent Gbagbo for a mortar attack a day earlier that left at least 25 people dead.
UN officials said they were investigating the attack, which they said could be a crime against humanity.
Gbagbo’s refusal to cede power after apparently losing his reelection has sparked the crisis.
The UN said in a statement that at least six mortar shells were fired from a nearby military base. About 40 people were wounded. Abidjan, Ivory Coast’s biggest city, has for weeks seen daily battles that have left hundreds dead.
