A soldier from the United Nations stands guard on a road in Agboville July 25, 2005. Ivory Coast's ruling party on Monday blamed rebels holding the north of the country for a series of attacks on security forces at the weekend, but the rebels said they had nothing to do with it. Agboville's streets were largely deserted as government soldiers armed with rocket launchers patrolled among smashed up cars and went from door to door checking identity papers.
