Protesters set fire to an Ebola treatment facility in Rwampara, in eastern DRC's Ituri province, on May 21 after authorities refused to release the body of a man believed to have died from the virus. Police fired warning shots to disperse the crowd and military forces were deployed to restore order.

The DRC's health ministry reported 626 suspected cases and 159 probable deaths since the country declared its 17th Ebola outbreak on May 15. The outbreak is caused by the rare Bundibugyo strain, for which no approved vaccine or specific treatment currently exists.

The M23 rebel group confirmed the first Ebola case in South Kivu province on May 21, involving a 28-year-old who had traveled from Kisangani and died before his diagnosis was confirmed. A separate confirmed case was also reported in Goma, the largest city in eastern DRC, which M23 also controls.

WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said the outbreak likely began several months before it was officially declared, with a critical four-week gap between the first recorded symptomatic case on April 24 and laboratory confirmation. The Bundibugyo strain could only be confirmed after samples were transported over 1,700 kilometers to a lab in Kinshasa.

The UN's WFP warned the outbreak is compounding an already severe humanitarian crisis, with 26.5 million people across the DRC facing acute food insecurity. Within 72 hours of the outbreak's declaration, WHO delivered 11.5 tonnes of medical supplies from Kinshasa and regional hubs in Dakar and Nairobi.

India and the African Union jointly agreed to postpone the Fourth India-Africa Forum Summit, scheduled for May 28-31 in New Delhi, citing the evolving Ebola situation. US foreign assistance to the DRC dropped from $1.4 billion in 2024 to $431 million in 2025, with only $21 million allocated so far in 2026.
