DRC Ebola Outbreak Worsens Amid Eastern Conflict and Displacement
The Ebola outbreak in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) is worsening, with aid operations significantly disrupted by renewed fighting between DRC forces and M23 rebels. This conflict has displaced thousands from a camp, severely constraining humanitarian access and increasing the risk of uncontrolled spread beyond current containment zones. The UN Security Council has convened to address the persistent clashes and the deteriorating humanitarian situation.
