Authorities in Congo say safety concerns are restricting the Ebola response in Ituri province after more than a dozen attacks on health facilities and workers are recorded. Multiple outlets report that at least a dozen incidents have targeted treatment centers and response teams operating in the outbreak’s epicenter. According to an incident manager for the Ebola response, Pierre Akilimali, many of the attacks are carried out by angry mobs that storm treatment centers and target staff in the field. The reported violence affects operational capacity by limiting movement and response activities where security is most difficult. The accounts describe the attacks as an ongoing problem during the current outbreak, prompting authorities to adapt or pause elements of the response in affected areas. While the reports focus on the impact of threats to personnel and facilities, they also indicate that the response continues under heightened security concerns, with officials briefing the public on the situation and the number of attacks recorded to date.
