Anger As Cameroon Hospital Burnt To Ground
A hospital in the Cameroonian city of Mamfe has been razed to the ground in an arson attack.
All 45 patients at Mamfe district hospital were safely transferred to another facility and there were no deaths, according to a local administrative official interviewed by the AFP news agency.
Doctors Without Borders (MSF) called Wednesday's fire an "unprecedented attack on a hospital of vital importance" that will have "a major impact on people in a region where access to healthcare has already been gravely impacted by years of violence".
It is not clear who was behind the attack, but local media suspect that it was the work of English-speaking separatists who want to break away from the French-speaking majority.
