Togo footballers shot in ambush
Gunmen have opened fire with machine guns on a bus carrying Togo's football team to the Africa Cup of Nations in Angola, wounding several players.
Officials say it occurred in the Angolan territory of Cabinda after the bus crossed from the Republic of Congo. There are reports of serious injuries.
The Africa Cup of Nations is due to start on Sunday.
Togo's first game is to be played on Monday in oil-rich Cabinda where rebels have been fighting for independence.
The Togolese team includes Manchester City striker Emmanuel Adebayor, who is not among those wounded, Manchester City says.
Those injured also include team doctors. The identities of the injured are not known.
