1. HIGHLIGHTS
Seventy-three (73) new confirmed cases including 25 deaths were reported during the day of 30 June 2026, in the provinces of Ituri (69 cases including 22 deaths) and Nord-Kivu (4 cases and 3 deaths).
These confirmed cases come from the ZS (health zone) of Bunia (29), Nizi (20), Rwampara (6), Mongbwalu (6), Komanda (2), Nyankunde (1), Tchomia (1), Mandima (1), Nia-Nia (1), Kambala (1) and Lolwa (1) in Ituri and Katwa (2), Beni (2) in Nord-Kivu.
A new health zone was affected in Ituri, namely the ZS of Lolwa.
Investigations conducted following the events of 29 June 2026 and reported during the day of 30 June 2026 made it possible to notify two confirmed cases of MVE in the Wamba Health Zone, Haut-Uélé province, including one death and one living case who fled from the Nia-Nia Health Zone.
In addition, Tshopo province reported a confirmed case of MVE in a 24-year-old female patient, 6 months pregnant, who died at PK 51, the epicentre of the outbreak in the Nia-Nia Health Zone.
The body of the deceased was transported clandestinely by motorbike from PK 51 towards Kisangani, where the sample taken turned out to be positive.
After investigation, all of these cases were linked to the Nia-Nia Health Zone, Ituri province, specifically in the Abanagomu health area, and are counted in the epidemiological situation of this health zone.
Fourteen (14) deaths were recorded among MVE patients in the CTE (Ebola treatment centre)/CT (transit centre) of Ituri and Nord-Kivu provinces.
Among these deaths, nine (9) were reported in Ituri, including five ( 5) at the Bunia CTE, two (2) at the Mongbwalu CTE, one (1) at the Bambu CT and one (1) at the Elikya CTE.
Five (5) other deaths were notified in Nord-Kivu province, including four (4) at the Katwa CTE and one (1) at the Beni CTE.
Nineteen (19) patients suffering from Ebola virus disease in Ituri province were declared recovered after obtaining negative results on control tests.
These recoveries were recorded in the different management structures, notably two (2) at the CME, Six (6) at the Mongbwalu CTE, seven (7) at the Elikya CTE and four (4) at the ISTM CTE.

2. EPIDEMIOLOGICAL AND OPERATIONAL CONTEXT
Ituri province, located in the North-East of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, shares a long and porous border with Uganda and South Sudan.
For more than two decades, it has been facing a chronic humanitarian crisis linked to armed conflicts and recurrent population displacements.
Its population is estimated at more than 8 million inhabitants, including more than one million internally displaced persons.
The Mongbwalu health zone, considered the starting point of the outbreak, is located in the territory of Djugu 70 km from Bunia.
This zone is characterised by the presence of armed groups, frequent population movements towards Uganda, and numerous artisanal mining sites attracting migrant workers.
In September 2018, Ituri province had already been affected by the 10th MVE outbreak which was then raging in Nord-Kivu.
The current outbreak, caused by the Bundibugyo ebolavirus, was officially declared on 15 May 2026 by the Minister of Public Health.
The three affected provinces have an estimated total population of nearly 15 million inhabitants, with massive internal displacements and cross-border flows towards neighbouring countries.

3. DETAILED EPIDEMIOLOGICAL ANALYSIS
3.1 Spatial distribution and active foci as of 30 June 2026
| Province | Confirmed cases | Deaths (confirmed) | Case fatality rate | Affected health zones | New confirmed cases (24h) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ituri | 1283 | 366* | 28,5% | 24 out of 36 (66,7 %) | 69 |
| Nord-Kivu | 120 | 71* | 59,2% | 11 out of 34 (32,3 %) | 4 |
| Sud-Kivu | 3 | 1 | 33,3% | 1 out of 34 (2,9 %) | 0 |
| Total | 1 406 | 438 | 31,2% | 36 out of 104 (34,6 %) | 73 |
- 9 deaths in Ituri and 5 deaths in Nord-Kivu were recorded among MVE patients (earlier confirmed cases) in the CTE/CT.
A new Health Zone, in this case the Lolwa Health Zone, was affected during the day of 30 June 2026.
The total number of affected Health Zones thus rises to 36 out of 104 in the three affected provinces.
Sud-Kivu province has recorded no new confirmed cases since the notification of the last confirmed case on 26 May 2026.
3.2 Breakdown by health zone (Cumulative as of 30/06/2026)
Ituri province (1 283 cases) : Bunia (387), Rwampara (301), Mongbwalu (264), Nyankunde (95), Nizi (61), Lita (29), Mangala (24), Bambu (16), Komanda (18), Tchomia (14), Kilo (9), Logo (7), Aungba (6), Nia-Nia (12), Damas (5), Rimba (3), Aru (3), Drodro (3), Mambasa (2), Gety (1), Kambala (2), Fataki (1) and Mandima (2), Lolwa (1).
Seventeen (17) additional cases are awaiting precise breakdown by health zone in the province.
Nord-Kivu province (120 cases) : Katwa (47), Butembo (34), Beni (24), Oicha (3), Kyondo (3), Kalunguta (2), Musienene (3), Goma (1), Masereka (1), Vuhovi (1) and Mabalako (1).
Sud-Kivu province (3 cases) : Miti-Murhesa (3).
3.3 Temporal analysis : An increasing number of confirmed cases is observed from one week to the next, reflecting continuous transmission of the disease in the community although during epidemiological weeks 23 and 24, the number of cases seemed to be stable.
The intensification of public health actions in terms of epidemiological and biological surveillance (decentralisation of diagnostic capacities) contributed to early detection confirming continuous and increased community transmission in W25.
Compared to all weeks where cases were recorded since the start of the outbreak, W25 represents the peak so far, namely more than 300 weekly cases.

- Cases imported into Tshopo and Haut Uélé provinces are counted in the Niania ZS
Over the last 24h, 73 new confirmed cases including 25 deaths were recorded in the provinces of Ituri (69 cases including 22 deaths) and Nord-Kivu (4 cases including 3 deaths) highlighting the progression of the epidemiological situation of the 17th Ebola Virus Disease (MVE) outbreak in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Thus, the cumulative total amounts to 1 406 confirmed cases and 438 deaths, expressing an overall case fatality rate of 31,2%.
Provincial dynamics and concentration of cases
Ituri province alone concentrates 91,2% of cases (n=1 283) and 83,6% of deaths (n=366), namely a case fatality rate of 28,5%, making it the absolute epicentre of the outbreak.
The health zones of Bunia (387 cases), Rwampara (301 cases) and Mongbwalu (264 cases) remain the most affected and concentrate approximately 74,2% of cases reported at provincial level and 67,7% at national level.
In these same ZS, moderate case fatality rates were observed in the ZS of Rwampara (20, 3%) and Bunia (24,3%) while the Mongbwalu zone also combines a high case fatality rate, namely 47,7% (126 deaths for 264 cases), suggesting persistent challenges in early case management or access to care.
It should be noted that 17 additional cases (without associated deaths) were reported while the health zones of provenance remain to be identified, which could indicate a geographical extension requiring reinforced investigation.
Severity of the outbreak in Nord-Kivu
A total of 120 confirmed cases and 71 deaths were reported in Nord-Kivu province since the start of the outbreak, namely a case fatality rate of 59,2 %.
The latter presents the most concerning profile in terms of severity, with a case fatality rate largely higher than the national average.
This high case fatality rate is driven by the health zones of Katwa (70,2%), Beni (62,5%), and Oicha (66,7%).
The Katwa health zone comes first in notification in terms of the number of cases (n=47), followed by the Butembo ZS (n=34) with a case fatality rate of 44,1%.
A case fatality rate of 100% was exceptionally observed in the Vuhovi health zone (with small numbers).
