Uganda's Ministry of Health has declared a temporary closure of the border with the Democratic Republic of Congo in response to the ongoing Ebola outbreak in the neighboring country. This precautionary measure aims to mitigate the risk of the virus crossing into Uganda, following the confirmation of seven cases of the Bundibugyo strain of Ebola. The decision reflects the government's commitment to safeguarding public health and preventing the spread of the disease within its territory. Further details on the implementation of this border closure and its duration have yet to be released.
