In pictures: Ivorian migrants targeted

French troops have arrived in the Ivory Coast capital, Yamoussoukro, to protect French as well as other nationals caught up in what the Ivorian Government is calling a coup attempt.

Diplomats and the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees say migrants from neighbouring countries in particular have been targeted on suspicion of supporting the coup.
