schema:articleBody	Ivory Coast security forces clashed with protesters in a regional stronghold of opposition candidate and former president Henri Konan Bedie on Tuesday, four days before the country's presidential election, witnesses told AFP. Young protesters set up makeshift barricades in the eastern town of Daoukro and surrounding roads as part of an opposition protest against President Alassane Ouattara's bid for a third term in the West African country. At least 30 people have been killed in clashes in different towns since August when Ouattara announced he would run again, stoking fears Ivory Coast could slide into the kind of post-election violence that left 3,000 people dead in 2010-2011. Police and troops cleared away protesters, some who responded with a barrage of stones and slogans against Ouatarra's election bid, witnesses said. "One army convoy was challenged by a group of protesters who were chanting 'We don't want a third term, this is Daoukro'," one witness who gave his name as Theophile told AFP by telephone. Witnesses said calm had been restored by Tuesday afternoon. No details were immediately available about any casualties. Bedie and other opposition leaders have urged a campaign of "civil disobedience" though they have not officially withdrawn their candidacies from the ballot. Ouattara says a constitutional reform in 2016 allows him to reset the two-term presidential limit and run again, a move he says is needed after his chosen successor died suddenly. But the opposition says his bid is unconstitutional. They have called for a boycott accusing the electoral authorities and constitutional council of being biased and unable to guarantee a fair election. Dozens of would-be candidates have been barred from running in the election, including former president Laurent Gbagbo and ex-rebel chief Guillaume Soro, who both played key roles in the 2010-11 crisis. ck/pkf/pma/erc
