Ebola Emergency: Africa CDC has confirmed a fresh Ebola outbreak in remote Ituri, with 65 deaths and 246 suspected cases so far, concentrated in Mongwalu and Rwampara and raising fears of spread through mining towns and cross-border movement. Hunger Crisis: At the same time, FAO/WFP warn 26.5 million people in the DRC face severe hunger—conflict, displacement, high prices, and disease outbreaks are pushing needs far beyond what aid can meet. Humanitarian Pressure: The hunger report lands amid reports of escalating insecurity, including drone strikes that hit civilians near Mushaki market in North Kivu. Migration & Courts: Separately, U.S. deportations of Latin American nationals to Congo continue to spark legal fights, with a judge ordering the return of a Colombian woman after Congo refused her due to medical care limits. Culture & Care: Beyond crisis, Kinshasa’s Lola ya Bonobo sanctuary keeps rescuing orphaned bonobos from poaching pressure, while the Africa Forward summit saw major Congolese music buzz when Fally Ipupa missed a headline performance.
