Africanews

The news channel began broadcasting online, and via TV and satellite on 20 April 2016.

[citation needed] Like its sister channel Euronews, Africanews runs news and weather summaries every half-hour.

Currently, the programs are broadcast in both English and French - most on-screen graphics and captions are bilingual.

In 2016, the channel planned to expand and accommodate most of the continents' population and roll out Swahili, Arabic, Dutch/Afrikaans, Spanish and Portuguese content soon.
