The United Nations has reported that the return of Ivorian refugees from Liberia has been undermined by recent cross-border attacks into Western Ivory Coast. The refugees would now have to wait as the temporary halt in repatriation remains in place, according to UN officials in Liberia, on Tuesday. More than 150,000 Ivorian refugees fled to Liberia in 2010, in the wake of the post election violence in the Ivory Coast. Among the 60,000 refugees remaining in camps are fighters who supported former President Laurent Gbagbo. http://cmiliberia.org/blog/2013/03/27/border-incident-halts-refugee-return/
