A Kenyan hospital is to provide free cancer treatment to 400 patients from Uganda as the country’s only radiotherapy machine has broken.
The Aga Khan University Hospital said it would do all it could to help and encouraged others to do the same.
The breakdown of the machine in Uganda has left thousands at risk of missing potential life-saving treatment.
Uganda’s government has said it will cover the travel and other costs for the 400 going to the Nairobi hospital.
