16 killed in new clashes in Central African Republic

Sixteen people have been killed in two days of clashes between Fulani herdsmen and the mainly Muslim Seleka militia in northern Central African Republic.

Reports say most of them armed Fulani herdsmen, were killed and more than 20 others were wounded in the clashes. 

The clashes which began on Sunday are not connected with a separate wave of violence in the capital, Bangui yesterday in which three people were killed.
