Ivory Coast announced it would reopen its border with eastern neighbour Ghana on Monday, more than two weeks after it was shut over a series of deadly attacks Ivorian officials said were launched from Ghanaian territory.
The Ivorian government blamed the raids, which targeted police and army installations in the commercial capital Abidjan and a border town on September 20 and 21, on supporters of former president Laurent Gbagbo currently living in exile in Ghana.
