Sudanese women suffer sexual violence in Libya
Sudanese women fleeing war in their country describe sexual attacks in "rape rooms" in Libya.
The UN refugee agency says more than 200,000 Sudanese have arrived in Libya since the start of the war. Women are amongst those hoping to find a better life there. Instead, the women say they have faced abuse and raped. Five women have told the 大象传媒 they were tortured and sexually abused in "rape rooms", and worse, children have not been spared.
Also, why are children not going to school in Nigeria? The country has some of the largest numbers of children out of school in the world. Why is that?
And is smoking tobacco really in decline in South Africa? It was amongst the first countries in the world to heavily tax tobacco and introduce controls to rein in smoking in the early 90s.
