Ivorian PM survives rocket attack
BOUAKE, Ivory Coast (Reuters) -- Ivory Coast's Prime Minister Guillaume Soro escaped unhurt when his plane was hit by a rocket on arrival at the rebel stronghold Bouake on Friday, but three others were killed, witnesses said.

Soro, head of the northern New Forces rebels who seized the north of the West African country during a brief 2002-2003 civil war, was named prime minister in April after he signed a peace deal with President Laurent Gbagbo to guide the country to long-delayed elections.
