Un ressortissant suisse et un militaire des Forces arm\u00e9es centrafricaines (FACA) ont \u00e9t\u00e9 tu\u00e9s dans l’apr\u00e8s-midi du samedi 1er ao\u00fbt 2026 \u00e0 Imohoro, un village situ\u00e9 \u00e0 une cinquantaine de kilom\u00e8tres au nord de Bangui, sur l’axe menant vers Damara. L’information a \u00e9t\u00e9 rapport\u00e9e par Radio France Internationale, relay\u00e9e par allAfrica.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Selon des sources militaires cit\u00e9es par RFI, les deux victimes s’\u00e9taient rendues sur place dans le cadre d’une mission li\u00e9e \u00e0 la recherche d’or. Le ressortissant suisse \u00e9tait escort\u00e9 par un sergent des FACA lorsque leur convoi a \u00e9t\u00e9 pris pour cible par des hommes arm\u00e9s non identifi\u00e9s. Alert\u00e9e par les habitants, une unit\u00e9 des FACA bas\u00e9e \u00e0 Damara, \u00e0 une dizaine de kilom\u00e8tres du lieu de l’attaque, est intervenue rapidement et a \u00e9chang\u00e9 des tirs avec les assaillants pendant plusieurs minutes avant que ceux-ci ne prennent la fuite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Une zone d\u00e9j\u00e0 confront\u00e9e \u00e0 une ins\u00e9curit\u00e9 r\u00e9currente<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Les corps du sergent et du ressortissant suisse ont \u00e9t\u00e9 transf\u00e9r\u00e9s \u00e0 Bangui. Aucune revendication n’a \u00e9t\u00e9 formul\u00e9e \u00e0 ce stade et l’identit\u00e9 des assaillants reste inconnue. Selon RFI, cette zone est r\u00e9guli\u00e8rement confront\u00e9e \u00e0 des attaques arm\u00e9es, des actes de banditisme et des braquages, qui limitent les d\u00e9placements et les activit\u00e9s quotidiennes des habitants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Les Forces arm\u00e9es centrafricaines ont indiqu\u00e9 avoir renforc\u00e9 les patrouilles et poursuivre des op\u00e9rations de ratissage pour retrouver les assaillants. Les autorit\u00e9s centrafricaines n’avaient pas communiqu\u00e9, au moment de la publication de l’article de RFI, sur les circonstances exactes de l’attaque. La d\u00e9l\u00e9gation suisse en R\u00e9publique centrafricaine n’avait pas non plus r\u00e9agi publiquement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cet \u00e9pisode s’inscrit dans un contexte s\u00e9curitaire qui demeure fragile au-del\u00e0 de la seule p\u00e9riph\u00e9rie de Bangui : dans son rapport mondial 2026, l’organisation Human Rights Watch rel\u00e8ve que la s\u00e9curit\u00e9 de plusieurs grandes villes centrafricaines continue de reposer en partie sur des mercenaires de la soci\u00e9t\u00e9 militaire priv\u00e9e russe Wagner, financ\u00e9e par l’\u00c9tat russe, alors que la d\u00e9mobilisation des groupes arm\u00e9s locaux reste largement inachev\u00e9e. La m\u00eame semaine, Radio Ndeke Luka rapportait une autre attaque arm\u00e9e ayant fait au moins un mort dans la Vakaga, \u00e0 l’autre bout du pays, signe que l’ins\u00e9curit\u00e9 continue de toucher plusieurs r\u00e9gions simultan\u00e9ment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
