01:10was made after the control of the provincial airport and the peripheral neighborhoods of the capital of the south,
01:16which informs you Africa News.

02:25In the Central African Republic, the country received from Russia
02:29a donation of nearly 80,000 doses of an innovative drug against HIV.
02:34This is what AFRIC MEDIA TV reports.
02:37This donation from the Russian house of Bangui
02:39was saluted by the Central African Minister of Health, Pierre Sanchez,
02:43as an appropriate aid after the stoppage of funding by the United States.
