Three Russians 'carrying press cards' killed in C Africa

Three Russians carrying press cards have been killed in the Central African Republic (CAR), security and religious sources said today.

Their bodies were found on a road 23 km from the central town of Sibut after apparently being killed at a roadblock by unidentified men, an investigator told AFP.

CAR is one of the poorest and most unstable countries in the world, with militia groups controlling most of its territory.
