Medical workers say at least two people have died during clashes in Ivory Coast following President Alassane Ouattara’s decision to run for a third term.

They were killed in the southern town of Divo where opposition supporters clashed with those of Mr Ouattara.

Residents said one of the dead was a teenager who died after protesters set fire to a bar.
