Case Surge: Authorities report 7,022 confirmed cases and 3,398 deaths, with 1,671 recoveries, as the outbreak continues to spread across hard-to-reach, conflict-affected areas. New Province Alert: A case was detected in South Ubangi after a man traveled from eastern Congo via Rwanda and Uganda, raising fears of many contacts and cross-border risk. School Tragedy: In Bukavu (South Kivu), a fire at two schools triggered a stampede, killing at least 26 children (and injuring dozens), with reports of students jumping from upper floors and deaths from smoke inhalation.
