'''Bébingui''' is a village situated in [[Lim-Pendé]] Prefecture, Central African Republic.

[[Chad National Army|ANT]] soldiers attacked Bébingui in mid-February 2008.<ref>{{cite web |last1=HRW |first1=HRW |title=Central African Republic: Chadian Army Attacks, Burns Border Villages |url=https://www.hrw.org/news/2008/03/19/central-african-republic-chadian-army-attacks-burns-border-villages |website=hrw.org |publisher=Human Rights Watch |access-date=9 March 2024}}</ref>
An armed group from Chad stormed Bébingui on 7 July 2015, stealing cattle and small livestock. Later, they returned those stolen items. The village received another attack from armed militia on 9 July, causing the villagers fled to the bush for a few days. On 14 July, a clash between two armed groups occurred in the village, prompting the residents to seek refuge in Bedogo 1, Bembo, [[Bedam, Central African Republic|Bedam]], and Bedaya 2.<ref>{{cite report|author=Danish Refugee Council|date=6 August 2015|title= Rapport preliminaire MSA Villages Bedaya 2, Bedogo 1, Bembo et Bédam.
