How did a shipping clerk in Antwerp discover one of the greatest crimes of the nineteenth century simply by paying attention to which ships were carrying what — and why did it take a decade of missionary photographs, a British consul's report, and Mark Twain's pen to force the world to look? Why did the invention of the pneumatic tyre turn a wild Congo rubber vine into the engine of an atrocity that halved the population of an entire country?

We're back to talk the first round of games in the World Cup group stage! We start by discussing the quality and depth throughout the tournament, from South Korea to Jordan to New Zealand and Iran. Has there ever been so much quality at a World Cup? Then we give our flowers to Cabo Verde and DR Congo, who picked up historic results against Spain and Portugal, respectively. We examine how they achieved these most epic of points and enjoy Verdean keeper Vozinha's rise to global fame. We also check in on the tournament favorites, who enjoyed a mixed opening round. England were brilliant in a high-octane win over Croatia and France demonstrated the immense power of their attacking talent in a brilliant second half steamrolling of Senegal. But elsewhere, Brazil struggled to cope in the midfield against Morocco, and Spain and Portugal encountered low-blocks they couldn't solve. We delve in Portugal's issues against Congo, from Ronaldo to the sameness of many of their creative midfielders. Finally, we move onto our superlatives, decreeing the first group stage round's best and worst games, players, moments, and much more. Cheers to Bubista and Sébastien Desabre!

Health workers responding to the Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of the Congo are working closely with local communities, recognising that trust is as critical as testing and treatment, to stop the disease in its tracks.Dr Marie-Roseline Belizaire, Africa's Emergencies Director for the World Health Organization (WHO) told UN News in an exclusive interview this week that response teams are engaging with women's groups, youth leaders, motorcycle drivers and traditional healers to dispel misinformation and explain how people can protect themselves.She told Cristina Silveiro that, instead of dismissing widely held beliefs, health workers are seeking to “integrate science” so that sick people come forward for treatment.

Nchini Jamhuri ya Kidemokrasia ya Congo, kumeundwa miungano miwili ya kisiasa. Kundi la kwanza linaitwa "C4" linalounga mkono mabadiliko ya katiba, chini ya rais Felix Tshisekedi. Nao vigogo wa upinzani wakiongozwa na Martin Fayulu, Moïse Katumbi na wengine, wao wameunda C64" vuguvugu linalopinga marekebisho yoyote na kuilinda katiba ya sasa. Nini hatima ya makundi haya ?

Lu Ming who leads the Chinese team says they will work with local medical and disease control institutions to provide support in epidemic assessment, case management, and other areas. A representative of the DRC's health ministry said China's dispatch of the medical experts represents timely and strong support for the Congolese government and people.
Shirika la Afya Ulimwenguni (WHO) lilisema kwenye taarifa yake ya Jumapili (Mei 31) kwamba, wagonjwa wengine zaidi wa Ebola wanatazamiwa kupona, hasa pale ugunduzi na matibabu yanapoanza mapema, wakati juhudi za kukabiliana na ugonjwa huo hatari zikiongezeka.
The rapid spread of Ebola in the Democratic Republic of Congo has created a "deeply alarming" situation, the medical charity Médecins Sans Frontières has warned. Also on the programme, Scientists have carried out a large scale international trial on a test that could help millions of breast cancer patients be treated safely without the need for chemotherapy; and there are wild celebrations in the streets of the French capital, after Paris St-Germain successfully defended their European Champions League men's football title, defeating Arsenal on penalties.(Photo: Ebola prevention campaign held in Goma, Congo The Democratic Republic Of The - 29 May 2026.

The major Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo's northeast is not just a public health emergency in an already impoverished and violence-beset region. Armed rebellion, fragile government and a collapse in public trust are combining to make outbreaks more frequent – and fostering dangerous disinformation that makes the virus harder to fight. How dangerous is the Ebola virus? Could it spread to the rest of the world? And is America's withdrawal from global health leadership at least partly to blame for its return?

In eastern DRC, the battle against Ebola is being fought alongside ongoing conflict. As violence restricts access, fuels mistrust, and disrupts lifesaving care, health workers face a daunting challenge: containing a deadly virus in one of the world's most insecure regions. DW spoke to DRC's Foreign Minister, Therese Kayikwamba, and Jean Kaseya, Director General of Africa CDC.
The head of the World Health Organisation, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, is travelling to the Democratic Republic of Congo as fears grow about the Ebola outbreak. Speaking ahead of his visit, Mr Ghebreysus warned that the country is facing a catastrophic collision of disease and conflict Also in the programme: Israel has carried out a strike in the Lebanese capital, Beirut, after warning people in the south of the country to leave their homes; and why a tennis player's outfits are causing such a fuss at the French Open (Photo: Health workers in protective gowns and masks operate at a checkpoint set up for preventative measures against Ebola near Goma: Credit: EPA 2026 Shutterstock Editorial )
Shirika la Afya Duniani limetangaza mlipuko wa Ebola katika Jamhuri ya Kidemokrasia ya Kongo na Uganda ni dharura ya afya ya umma inayotia wasiwasi kimataifa.WHO inasema mlipuko huo hauja fikia vigezo vya dharura ya janga, lakini nchi zinazo changia mipaka ya ardhi na DRC ziko katika hatari kubwa ya usambaaji zaidi.Kwa wakazi wa Goma katika Jamhuri ya Kidemokrasia ya Kongo, wamekuwa na mambo mengi ya kuhofia kutokana na uhasama ambao umekuwa ukiendelea kati ya vikosi vya serikali na wapiganaji waasi.Bonyeza hapo juu kwa taarifa kamili.
Health workers are racing to contain the Bundibugyo strain of the virus in the Democratic Republic of Congo, for which there is currently no approved vaccine or treatment. The World Health Organisation says the Ebola outbreak spreading through the eastern D-R-C into neighbouring Uganda could be far larger than officially reported. In cities like Goma and Bunia, families are still trying to continue daily life amid growing fears the outbreak is spreading beyond control.
The wait is finally over! In this episode, we chronicle the Democratic Republic of the Congo's emotional journey back to the world stage for the first time since 1974. We break down Sébastien Desabre's tactical masterclass that toppled African giants, the veteran leadership of Chancel Mbemba, and the dramatic extra-time heroics against Jamaica. From their defensive transformation to the explosive pace of Yoane Wissa and Cedric Bakambu, discover why the Leopards are ready to shake up Group K and prove that this 52-year-long dream is just the beginning.

The World Health Organisation has declared an outbreak of the Ebola virus in the Democratic Republic of Congo a public health emergency of international concern. Officials say there are now over 600 suspected cases, and over 139 suspected deaths. This latest outbreak presents a series of difficulties for health officials. The outbreak is driven by a new strain of the virus called Bundibugyo, for which there is no vaccine. The epicentre of the outbreak is in the remote eastern province of Ituri, which is an active conflict zone. And local superstitions and beliefs frequently lead people to seek help at places of worship rather than from medical professionals. We cover what you need to know about this current outbreak and how cases are being managed. Among others, we hear from BBC health correspondent James Gallagher and BBC presenter Anne Soy, who covered the 2014-16 Ebola outbreak in West Africa and later in the DRC.

More than a dozen deportees from the US, reportedly from South America, have arrived in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. At the beginning of April, the DRC government announced a deal with the US under which Kinshasa would accept individuals known as “third-country” deportees. The arrival of these deportees has raised concerns and questions among Congolese people and opposition figures.We also explore a different kind of journey - discipline in the African diaspora, where some parents have gone as far as sending their children back home for schooling.

In Fizi territory, in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo, fighting is raging between Congolese soldiers, who are supported by local armed groups, and M23 rebels, who are allegedly supported by Rwanda. New recruits swell the ranks of the armed groups. And civilians are caught in the crossfire. A report by Aurélie Bazzara-Kibangula and Emmet Livingstone.
A three-year investigation by the Environmental Investigation Agency (EIA) and Congolese NGO Premi Congo uncovered severe health consequences for communities living near the Tenke Fungurume Mine (TFM) in the Democratic Republic of Congo, the world's largest copper-cobalt mine. Residents report nosebleeds, coughing up blood, and a troubling rise in stillbirths, all linked to high levels of sulfur dioxide emitted by a processing plant at TFM operated by Chinese mining giant CMOC Group. Luke Allen, a senior African program campaigner and one of the authors of the report, joins Eric & Géraud to discuss how the investigation also exposed major problems in corporate certifications that are supposed to call out this kind of environmental harm, but instead gave cover to the very companies causing it.
Originally released November 22, 2022. New Kindred episodes will drop starting in April 2026.In this week's episode from our archives, we speak with Itsaso Velez del Burgo about her work at the Lwiro Primate Rehabilitation Center in the Democratic Republic of Congo rescuing and rehabilitating chimps and other vulnerable species. She talks to us about how the devastating effects of extreme poverty and hunger lead to poaching and the trauma that echoes through the chimpanzees and their families. We hear her intimate account of what little baby chimps go through when they are taken from their killed mothers and what a life resulting from the illegal selling of our closest relatives looks like.
