An opposition leader in Chad has been killed during a shootout with security forces, a state prosecutor says.
Yaya Dillo’s death comes after the government blamed him for a deadly attack on the country’s security agency. He denied the accusation.
On Wednesday, heavy gunfire was heard near his party’s headquarters in the capital, N’Djamena.
Mr Dillo is a vocal opponent of his cousin, President Mahamat Déby, who has been in power since 2021.
Mr Déby succeeded his father who was killed by rebels after three decades in power.
