Sectarian fighting in Central African Republic has left at least 75 people dead. A man by the name of Father Cassien Kamatari said help was needed to stop violence between Christians and Muslims. The majority of those confirmed dead were Christian. Some believe it is a revenge attack. The violence began when heavily armed muslims erected barricades of the entrance and exits of the town of Bangui and began attacking Christians. Father Kamatari called for help, but no one got back to him. He said that his parish was sheltering 1,500 people trying to flee the violence. The UN last month said that at least 10,000 troops may be required to end the unrest.
