As of Tuesday, 3,442 cases had been recorded, with 1,521 deaths, according to the latest government update.

The outbreak, which was declared on May 15, has been linked to the , for which there are or treatments.

There are currently 797 patients in isolation or hospitalized, while a further 615 patients have recovered, the data showed. Contact tracing continues to lag, with only around 78% of known contacts monitored nationwide, well below the 95% target health officials say is needed to interrupt transmission.

and illegal mining in the region have made it difficult to trace thousands who have come in contact with infected individuals.

The outbreak is mostly concentrated in eastern Congo’s remote Ituri province, which accounts for nearly 90% of cases, but there have been others confirmed in five provinces, including one of the country’s largest cities, Kisangani.

Neighboring Uganda on Tuesday following the discharge of the country鈥檚 last patient in mid-June.

Ebola is rare, but highly contagious and can be contracted via bodily fluids such as vomit, blood or semen. The disease it causes is severe and often fatal.

The latest at a quicker rate than any previous outbreak, including in 2014-2016 when 28,000 cases were reported, of which over 11,000 people died. That outbreak took about eight months to reach 1,000 deaths.

The World Health Organization says the global risk of spread remains low because Ebola spreads through direct contact with bodily fluids, not through the air, making it much harder to spread than respiratory viruses. Cases detected outside the affected region have so far been quickly identified and contained without leading to sustained transmission, the agency said.

In Congo, however, the risk of the spread remains 鈥渧ery high,鈥� according to the WHO.

The speed of transmission in the current outbreak comes amid public concern that many communities in the affected provinces are either unreachable or have been abandoned by responders in recent days over safety concerns amid attacks from angry residents and rebels.

Misinformation asserting that and the restriction of to limit the outbreak鈥檚 spread have angered some residents and led to .

International partners supporting the Ebola response in Ituri鈥檚 Nyakunde health zone temporarily withdrew after a July 15 attack on a hospital and a treatment center, sparked by a patient鈥檚 death.

Officials say the , including the WHO, Africa CDC, Samaritan鈥檚 Purse and Mercy Corps, has disrupted surveillance, contact tracing and supplies.

Dr. D茅sir茅 Duabo, chief medical officer for the health zone, said partners had provided much of the supplies, equipment and operational support, warning that the small stocks left are 鈥渁lmost depleted.鈥�

Attacks such as the one in Nyakunde are causing anxiety among health workers and making it difficult for them to carry out their duties, said Pierre Akilimali, the Ebola response incident manager at the National Public Health Institute of the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

鈥淭hey are working amidst risks of infection as well as risks to their personal safety,鈥� he said.

Local health officials say security has since stabilized and are urging partners to return, with Africa CDC saying teams could redeploy as soon as next week.

Saifuddin said Myanmar had committed to accept up to 5,000 of its citizens currently living in and an unspecified number currently in Cox鈥檚 Bazar, a town in south east Bangladesh.

Malaysia had identified up to 4,000 Myanmar nationals in its 19 detention depots, who will be moved to a single site for security screening and documentation purposes, he said.

鈥淲e will certainly meet the target of 5,000 individuals once this process is complete,鈥� Saifuddin told to reporters, adding that the foreign ministry will handle the next stage of the repatriation process with Myanmar.

Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim had said Wednesday that those being repatriated were refugees.

鈥淧eople ask why we do not simply send them back. Send them where? Myanmar had refused to accept them before. Now, because of our good relations with Myanmar, they have agreed to take back 5,000 from Malaysia,鈥� Anwar was cited as saying by the New Straits Times.

However, Saifuddin, who did not explicitly identify the 5,000 individuals as Rohingya, said only Myanmar nationals with refugee status were being repatriated.

Foreign ministry officials could not be immediately reached for comment.

Mohammed Mizanur Rahman, a commissioner for refugee, relief and repatriation in Cox鈥檚 Bazar, told The Associated Press by phone that he was not aware of any repatriation of Rohingya from Bangladesh.

In Naypyitaw, the capital of Myanmar, officials also rejected reports that the government would accept Rohingyas.

Han Win Aung, director-general of the ASEAN department at Myanmar鈥檚 Foreign Affairs Ministry, said the repatriation program was focused solely on verified Myanmar nationals currently held in detention centers in Malaysia.

Myanmar, formerly known as Burma, does not recognize the Rohingya as one of the country鈥檚 135 lawful ethnic minorities, instead referring to them as Bengalis to imply they are natives from Bangladesh and are illegally settled in Myanmar.

鈥淭his is not about bringing back Bengalis. There are Myanmar nationals who are being held in detention centers in Malaysia for various reasons,鈥� Han Win Aung told the AP. 鈥淏oth sides are still at the stage of coordinating to repatriate only those whose identity as genuine Myanmar citizens has been verified.鈥�

He said the plan follows earlier repatriation operations in 2021 and 2022, when Myanmar received more than 1,100 of its nationals stranded in Malaysia.

Han Win Aung said the number of people to be repatriated and the timeline for transfer remain under discussion.

Malaysia is home to about 215,600 refugees and asylum seekers registered with the U.N. refugee agency, including about 126,000 Rohingya who make up one of Southeast Asia’s largest refugee community. Despite hosting them, Malaysia is not a party to the U.N. Refugee Convention and treats refugees as undocumented migrants.

Europe is enduring one of its hottest summers on record, with wildfires breaking out in areas stretching from the Atlantic coast to the eastern Mediterranean and hundreds of thousands of people ordered to evacuate from homes and vacation destinations.

Firefighters fanned out to battle infernos in places like England, , and Turkey, while in Romania, officials at the state-owned Cernavoda nuclear power plant shut down both of its reactors because of the low level of Danube River waters used to cool them.

The returns authorized in France covered nine localities that had been evacuated, including several where firefighters and water-dropping planes had battled flare-ups just the day before. Higher humidity, cooler temperatures and slight rain have raised hopes that Thursday could be a decisive step on the way to vanquishing the fire.

鈥淲e鈥檙e on the right track,鈥� said Sophie Brocas, prefect of the Gironde region, which includes the city of Bordeaux.

Nearly two-thirds of the 224,000 people initially ordered to evacuate their homes in southwest France have now been allowed to go home. Some 60,000 people who had been evacuated from three Bordeaux suburbs were given the go-ahead to return on Tuesday.

Evacuees immediately streamed back Thursday to emptied towns and villages, among them 50-year-old Sanachit Pho Ne Keo and his wife. They were relieved to discover that apart from black ash on an outside terrace, their home in Martignas-sur-Jalle hadn鈥檛 been damaged or looted.

鈥淓verything seems OK and it鈥檚 a good feeling!鈥� he said. 鈥淭he fire was pretty close, the last smoking embers are still close 鈥� but we could鈥檝e expected worse.鈥�

Local officials reported a 鈥渞ather calm鈥� night, with a fire that has not grown beyond the 42,000 hectares (about 162 sq. miles) already affected. Some expressed hope that could soon get back to work.

The regional prefecture said returning evacuees must keep their phones on for evacuation alerts and should pack in case they need to leave again.

Authorities also said the A63 highway that has been closed since the weekend was reopening Thursday afternoon, clearing a major artery for road traffic with Spain and vacationers as France enters its peak August holiday period.

Other European countries have sent firefighting resources into the region. French Interior Minister Laurent Nunez announced further boosts in the number of firefighters engaged 鈥� now 3,300 鈥� backed by two dozen planes and helicopters that dump water and fire retardant onto smoldering woodlands.

In a first, police water cannons usually used for riot control have been deployed in to help extinguish embers and flare-ups, Nunez said.

Crews using heavy diggers continued ripping up trees and bushes to carve broad stretches of barren land between woodlands that have burned and those that have been spared, trying to box in the giant blaze with new firebreaks 鈥� now exceeding a total of 130 kilometers (80 miles) through the forests.

Emergency crews have set fires deliberately to fight the blaze to burn away scrub that could fuel the wildfire.

Temperatures that peaked around 40 Celsius (104 Fahrenheit) a day earlier were dropping on Thursday, set to top out at 27 C (80 F) along the coast. An 鈥渙range鈥� heat wave alert 鈥� the second-highest level after 鈥渞ed鈥� 鈥� was lifted shortly before dawn.

Severe drought has created a whack-a-mole summer fire season for French emergency crews, with blazes popping up almost continuously around the country 鈥� even as the monster fire in the southwest monopolized attention and consumed resources.

Two firefighters suffered light injuries battling a blaze in woodlands in the eastern Burgundy region that was contained Thursday. Another four were injured fighting a fire in the Var region of southern France that was brought under control with a dozen planes and helicopters dropping water and retardant, authorities said.

In Spain, which was battling one of its , firefighters tackled multiple blazes in places like northwestern Zamora and eastern Castell贸n on Thursday, even as they made progress the day before to stabilize the two main fires of concern in the Madrid region and 脕vila.

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro S谩nchez warned of a new heatwave, saying: “Let us all exercise the utmost caution and prevention, as some of these fires are caused by human recklessness.鈥�

At the peak of the evacuations, a third of a million people were driven from homes and vacation sites in France and Spain.

In England on Thursday, more than 90 firefighters were tackling a blaze on heathland near the eastern coast, where dozens of people have been evacuated from homes, vacation cottages and a mobile home park.

Officials have declared half of England officially in drought after more than a month without rain in many areas.

The wildfire emergency stretched from the Atlantic coast to the eastern Mediterranean: Authorities in Greece said Wednesday that three firefighters had died on the island on Crete.

In neighboring Turkey on Thursday, firefighters were tackling multiple forest fires in four western provinces, the state-run Anadolu news agency reported.

Blazes in touristic Mugla and Antalya and elsewhere raged overnight as hot weather and strong winds gripped the region. Residents were evacuated as teams with firefighting planes and helicopters battled the fires.

Authorities in countries like , Germany and Britain have reported thousands of excess deaths this summer during the string of .
