Coronavirus pandemic: South Africa three-week lockdown comes into effect

EYE ON AFRICA © FRANCE 24

In tonight's bulletin, we continue to look at how the coronavirus is impacting the African continent. Our South Africa correspondent brings us the latest on the first day of the three-week lockdown in the country. She tells us that not everyone is respecting the confinement. Also, police in Uganda use force and fire bullets to stop public gatherings. And in DR Congo, our correspondents bring us a report on how hygiene measures are proving hard to implement in the country.

Produced by Tom Burges Watson and Tatiana Reiter.
