location: Batangafo
notes: 31 October. Following two separate attacks on Muslims and Fulani the same morning (coded separately), the MPC, FPRC and armed Muslims attacked IDP camps, homes, the church and the market in Batangafo. IDP camps were targeted as the attackers suspected Anti-Balaka of hiding in them. Eleven people were killed and 37 were injured. Investigations that the attackers sought to permanently remove IDPs from the town by destroying the camps but the perpetrators instructed women and children IDPs to flee their huts before they were set on fire, elderly and disabled persons accounted for the majority of fatalities according to MSF.
