Uganda Border Measures: Uganda temporarily closed its border with the DRC, allowing only authorised Ebola response teams, humanitarian operations, food/cargo and security—under strict screening and 21-day isolation for those cleared to enter. WHO Response in Congo: WHO chief Tedros Ghebreyesus arrived in Kinshasa, saying the outbreak “can be stopped” while urging a ceasefire as conflict, distrust and shortages hamper care; EU and US aid shipments are reaching Ituri. Regional Aviation Watch: Emirates issued an Ebola advisory for travellers linked to Uganda as North America tightens airport screening, while UN aviation guidance says air travel can remain safe if operators follow WHO recommendations. Nigeria Preparedness: Nigeria’s NCDC put Kano, FCT, Lagos and other states on high alert for possible importation, stressing no confirmed cases yet.
