Dozens of vehicles carrying emergency aid from the U.N. World Food Program are making their way under French military escort to the capital of Central African Republic. Some of the 100 trucks began arriving Monday from neighboring Cameroon after concerns about violence along the road to Bangui had blocked the U.N. from delivering urgently needed supplies. Escalating violence between Muslims and Christians has left an untold number of dead in recent weeks.
