The aid group Medecins Sans Frontieres says six people are dead and more than 50 others are wounded after fighting resumed in Central African Republic's capital.

The group says the wounded sustained gunshot wounds during Tuesday's violence in the PK5 and Fatima neighbourhoods.

Anne-Marie Boyeldieu, the head of the aid group's mission in Central African Republic, calls on residents to respect the work of medical staff "regardless of their background, religious or political affiliations."
