Medecins Sans Frontieres (Geneva) 9 June 2011 To reach the displaced people, each week MSF sends mobile medical clinics to 25 locations along the west and southwest of Ivory Coast, in addition to running another 20 mobile clinics along the border counties inside Liberia. The situation in Ivory Coast remains volatile in the west, following the ferocious post-election conflict that wracked the country for several months, intensifying existing inter-communal tensions and land rivalries. Weeks after the violence began to subside, many villages still lie empty in the west, with their communities hiding in the bush, displaced in camps or living as refugees in Liberia

Manchester United are reportedly going to lodge a £20 million bid this week to acquire the services of Arsenal midfielder Samir Nasri.

The 23-year-old is thought to have been offered a five-year contract by the Gunners after his top quality showings last season. But he is yet to put pen to paper and confirm his stay at Ashburton Grove, with speculation abounding that his reluctance to commit reflects Arsenal’s trophy drought and uncertainty about manager Arsene Wenger’s transfer activity.

In the meantime, the midfielder has been linked with a controversial move to the Red Devils, who are fresh from becoming the most successful club in English football after surpassing Liverpool when they won their 19th league title last season.

Now The News of the World reports that United will make a £20m move to sign the Frenchman this week.

Arsenal are believed to be anxious not to repeat the mistake they made with Mathieu Flamini – who left on a Bosman free transfer to join AC Milan in 2008 – with Nasri currently having only one year left on his contract with the club.
