Last update: 4 hours ago

Ebola Emergency Escalates: WHO is sounding the alarm over a fast-spreading, rare Ebola outbreak in eastern Congo, with deaths rising to at least 134 and more than 500 suspected cases, after the virus circulated unnoticed for weeks; WHO says the “scale and speed” are worrying, and Congo is still racing to find “patient zero” while aid groups expand response. Travel Policy Clash: Canada says it is not imposing an Ebola travel ban, while the U.S. has tightened entry rules and Africa’s health officials warn that fear-driven border closures can backfire. ICC Defense Update: Australian lawyer Kate Gibson has been added to Rodrigo Duterte’s ICC defense team, after previously working on a successful acquittal for a former Congolese vice president. Sports Spotlight: Portugal named Cristiano Ronaldo for a record sixth World Cup, with coach Roberto Martínez also honoring late Diogo Jota in the squad; Portugal’s group includes Congo.
