- The Ivorian authorities have arrested fifteen people they suspect of involvement in the terrorist attack last weekend at a resort. The suspected leader of the terrorist operation, Kounta Dallah, is still at large, told prosecutor Richard Adou Tuesday.

The judge is working on tracing orders for a number of other suspects, said Adou. It would go to both domestic and foreign warrants.

The attack on the resort of Grand Bassam took nineteen lives. Extremists stormed a beach and bathers shot dead, then enter a few hotels. Al-Qaeda has claimed responsibility in the Islamic Maghreb.
