Twenty killed in Sierra Leone military barracks attack

EYE ON AFRICA © FRANCE 24

We focus on the situation in Sierra Leone, where 20 people were killed during Sunday’s attack on military barracks. President Julius Maada Bio said in an address on Sunday that most of the leaders of the attack had been arrested. Officials confirmed, however, that nearly 2,000 inmates escaped central prison during the events and only 23 have so far been brought back.

We also take a look at the latest developments in Kenya, where the death toll from flooding has risen to 76. The government on Monday has urged people living in flood-prone areas to relocate to higher ground as heavy rains continue.

Finally, we look at South Africa's abalone crisis. The sea snail used to be abundant, but not since a recent surge in poaching.
