Pink October: Financial hardship for women with breast cancer in Togo

EYE ON AFRICA © FRANCE 24

In tonight's edition: We look at the financial hardship facing women with breast cancer in Togo. The treatment falls outside the public healthcare system and many cannot afford to pay privately. But first, Zimbabwe becomes the first country in Africa to approve an injectable drug to prevent HIV transmission. Authorities say it will provide vital protection for at-risk groups, including teenage girls. Finally, we bring you an extract from an award-winning documentary by FRANCE 24's Clement Di Roma and RFI's Carol Valade. Their report looks at Russia's growing influence in the Central African Republic.
