In this photo provided by International Rescue Committee, hundreds of refugees seek shelter in a hangar at the United Nations peacekeeping base in Kaga Bandoro refugee camp in Central African Republic, Thursday, Oct. 13, 2016. Fighters with the former Seleka rebel group attacked a northern town in Central African Republic overnight Wednesday, and clashes left at least 30 dead and 57 wounded as United Nations peacekeepers confronted them, the U.N. said. The attack in Kaga-Bandoro was likely retaliation for the death on Tuesday of a suspected former Seleka member, the peacekeeping mission said in a statement. Peacekeepers repelled the attackers, killing at least 12 of them, the U.N. mission said. (David Belluz/International Rescue Committee via AP)
