AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

Ebola Watch: The Democratic Republic of Congo’s Ebola outbreak has surged past 1,000 suspected cases (1,077) with 121 confirmed and 17 deaths, as insecurity and displacement in eastern provinces strain response efforts; Uganda has reported linked cases and temporarily closed its border with Congo, while WHO warns the alert level is “very high” and calls for urgent action. Regional Security: Burundi and Congo’s defense leadership reaffirmed security cooperation in Gitega after a visit by Congolese Deputy Prime Minister Guy Kabombo Muadiamvita, focusing on border security amid the wider eastern DRC crisis. Refugee Rights: Human rights groups in Switzerland and civil society in Geneva denounced continued forced returns of Burundian asylum seekers, warning of risks of persecution and calling for better risk assessments. EAC Integration: East African regulators are drafting new harmonised roaming rules to cut communication costs and boost cross-border connectivity. Sports & Youth: Zambia’s U17 women’s team heads to Lubumbashi for a second-leg qualifier against DR Congo with a 5-0 lead, while Burundi’s football ties to the region continue to draw attention. Trade & Agriculture: China will open coffee bean imports from all 53 African countries with diplomatic ties starting July 20, with Burundi among producers already cleared.
