Ivory Coast's internationally recognised president Alassane Ouattara enforced a blockade Friday around his rival Laurent Gbagbo's Abidjan residence, as the UN said it had found more than 100 bodies in the west of the country.

Reports of massacres in the west of the country emerged last week as Ouattara's forces swept through the region on their way to confonting Gbagbo in Abidjan.
