DRC: Hospital looted and civilians killed in Ituri

A hospital has been looted and a number of civilians have been killed in the latest attack by armed groups in the province of Ituri in the Democratic Republic of Congo. We hear from Matthias Gillman, spokesperson for the United Nations peacekeeping force MONUSCO, who says the latest atrocity follows an attack at the end of May in the same area, in which 55 people were killed.

Plus, we discuss the challenges South Sudan faces as it nears its 10-year independence anniversary with the United Nations ambassador to the country, Nicholas Haysom.

And we look at how the Covid-19 pandemic has impacted job opportunities for young women in Kenya.
