Israel removes Kenya from Ebola travel restriction list amid rising cases in DRC

Israel has removed Kenya from the list of countries subject to temporary Ebola-related entry restrictions. The announcement came hours after Foreign Affairs Principal Secretary Korir Sing’Oei protested Kenya’s inclusion, citing the country’s role in regional surveillance and response efforts. The development comes as Ebola cases in the Democratic Republic of Congo rose by 72 in a single day, with Africa CDC expressing concern over weak contact tracing a month after the outbreak.
