Ivory Coast strongman Laurent Gbagbo is has surrendered after United Nations and French forces bombarded military sites, backing Ivorian fighters who are trying to install the elected president.

U.N. and French forces launched a full air assault on the presidential palace and three military garrisons yesterday marking an unprecedented escalation in the international community's efforts to topple the leader.

Gbagbo was declared the loser of elections in November but refused to cede power to winner Alassane Ouattara even as the world's largest cocoa producer teetered on the brink of all-out civil war.
