At least 100 civilians killed in Chad fighting: group

N'DJAMENA (Reuters) - Fighting between rebels and government forces in Chad's capital N'Djamena at the weekend killed at least 100 civilians and wounded up to 700, medical charity Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF) said on Wednesday.

"In the three main hospitals of the town we have counted 100 civilians dead ... We are arriving at something like 700 wounded," Guilhem Molinie, head of mission for MSF-Brussels in Chad, told Reuters, adding the death toll was likely to rise as Red Cross workers were still recovering bodies.
