Major decisions will be made in the next few hours after a meeting between Ivory Coast strongman Laurent Gbagbo and his generals, reports state television in the wake of heavy fighting.
"Ivory Coast's generals went to reaffirm their loyalty to the head of state," the presenter announced, as heavy gun battles rocked two suburbs of the economic capital Abidjan on Monday.
"In a few hours, the generals will be received again by Laurent Gbagbo and major decisions will be taken," she said.
"This action seeks to silence all the rumours of defection and treachery of some generals," reported RTI, adding they had discussed "the overall security situation in the country."
