UN Operation in Cote d'Ivoire UNOCI has undertaken the rehabilitation of the

offices of the sub Prefecture of Kouan-Houle (Danane division) within the

framework of its Quick Impact Projects programme. The rehabilitation follows the

recent holding of a 3-day sensitisation campaign for peace and reconciliation

known as UN days in the region.

Fraternite Matin

: UNOCI organised a sensitisation forum for some 50 local administrative

authorities and elites of the greater west region in Daloa recently in order to

promote social cohesion and national reconciliation. The aim was to encourage

the opinion leaders to be fully invloved in the reconciliation process by

promoting the spirit of forgiveness.

President Alassane Ouattara on an official visit to Congo-Brazzaville has said

it was up to the International Criminal Court( ICC) to furnish additional

evidence in the case against former Ivorian president Laurent Gbagbo as

requested by the Court. Mr. Ouattara was responding to reporters who wanted him

to comment on last Monday's decision by the ICC to adjourn the confirmation of

charges against Laurent Gbagbo. "The ICC is doing its job and I am doing mine,"

Mr. Ouattara replied.

Nord-Sud:

Sources close to the ICC say the Prosecutor  Fatou Bensouda plans to appeal

against the decision by the ICC to adjourn the confirmation of charges against

Laurent Gbagbo by  arguing that the initial evidence brought before the court

was valid.

Le Temps

says the UN Operation in Cote d'Ivoire UNOCI, in an attempt to come to the

rescue of the Ouattara regime following the ICC adjournment, on Saturday staged

and filmed a scene in Duekoue in which it simulates the burning of a UNOCI

helicopter purportedly by pro-Gbagbo activists. UNOCI Spokesperson Sylvie van

den Wildenberg who was contacted by Le Temps, confirmed the

simulation exercise saying it was a prelude to a joint military exercise with

the Ivorian Army scheduled for 25 June . Le Temps however believes

the exercise was aimed at "fabricating evidence to be supplied to Fatou

Bensouda."
