DR Congo Ebola outbreak passes 900 suspected cases amid attacks on treatment centers
Suspected Ebola cases in eastern DR Congo have reached 904 with 119 suspected deaths, as the WHO notes a very high domestic risk but low global risk. Health facilities face arson attacks, security challenges and severe shortages amid ongoing conflict, displacement, and international aid cuts, complicating containment in Ituri. Authorities are tightening burial protocols to prevent transmission, while the Bundibugyo strain driving this outbreak has no approved vaccine or treatment.
