21 Mayıs 2026Al Jazeera

The India-Africa summit has been postponed due to the ongoing Ebola outbreak in the M23-held areas of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DR Congo). The situation is exacerbated by armed conflicts in the region, which are hindering containment efforts.
This decision reflects the serious implications of health crises on international diplomacy and cooperation.
Ebola outbreaks have historically posed significant challenges in Central Africa, particularly in conflict zones like eastern DR Congo. The presence of armed groups complicates access to healthcare and hampers response efforts, making it difficult to contain the virus.
The postponement of the India-Africa summit highlights the intricate relationship between public health and geopolitical stability. As Ebola spreads in a conflict-ridden area, it not only poses a health risk but also disrupts diplomatic engagements.
