“The era of deportations has begun.” A few months ago, this line from far‑right Swedish MEP Charlie Weimers sounded like a provocation. Now, after the agreement on the EU’s new Return Regulation between Parliament, the member states and the Commission, it reads more like an accurate description of the European Union’s political direction. With the legal framework for sending migrants to deportation camps outside Europe nearly complete, several member states — Germany, Austria, the Netherlands, Denmark and Greece — have intensified their search for countries willing to host them, mainly in Africa, far from the European continent, according to diplomatic sources. The political battle is over; the geographical one is just beginning.
One killed as hundreds protest in Kenya against US Ebola quarantine centre
At least one person has been killed after Kenyan police opened fire as hundreds of demonstrators protested a quarantine centre for US citizens exposed to Ebola, which the United States government is racing to build in the central town of Nanyuki.
On Tuesday, the NGO Vocal Africa posted on X that one person had died after being shot in the head by Kenyan police who earlier used water cannon, tear gas to disperse the crowds.
The proposed 50-bed unit at an air force base in Nanyuki has angered many Kenyans, who accuse the US of offloading the health risk of caring for those exposed to the Ebola outbreak in the eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) and Uganda.
Last week, hundreds took to the streets in Nanyuki amid growing frustration among residents as Kenyan and US authorities publicly reaffirmed their commitment to the plan despite court orders. At the time, the demonstration also turned violent, with at least two people killed and one wounded.

Fury erupts in Kenya over joint US Ebola quarantine plan – VIDEO
Hundreds of Nanyuki town residents took to the streets to oppose the construction of an infectious disease isolation facility in Laikipia County.
Protesters say resources earmarked for the facility should be directed to regional development, fearing it could still expose communities to Ebola.
The army even sent a tank to quell the protest by intimidating the crowd.
The Fear of an International Plot
The Ebola virus of the international epidemic emergency in Africa, where in Congo and Uganda it has already killed dozens of people, is at the center of many suspicions for two reasons:
The dangerous tests on this pathogen conducted by the US Pentagon in the infamous biolaboratories in Ukraine
Research on a vaccine for the specific strain of the current alarm began 4 months ago by Moderna with the contribution of Ngo Gavi by Bill Gates

MSF doctor exposed to the virus at Spallanzani Hospital in Rome
The Doctors Without Borders (MSF aka Médecins Sans Frontières) doctor who was exposed to patients who tested positive for Ebola in the Democratic Republic of Congo arrived overnight at the Lazzaro Spallanzani National Institute for Infectious Diseases in Rome. The woman is well and asymptomatic. She will remain under observation at the Roman hospital until June 8th, MSF sources confirmed.
As part of her clinical practice, the surgeon came into contact with patients who later tested positive on May 16th. This is therefore a case of direct contact. The doctor also performed emergency lifesaving surgery on May 18th on a child who was the victim of a grenade explosion. The child is a suspected case of Ebola, and a test for Ebola is not yet available.
Ebola: Three Red Cross workers die as more than 1000 cases and 200 deaths reported
«Three Red Cross volunteers have died in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) as the Ebola outbreak continues to spread rapidly and cases (suspected and confirmed) surpass 1000» according to BMJ (British Medical Journal).
The volunteers-Ajiko Chandiru Viviane, Sezabo Katanabo, and Alikana Udumusi Augustin-were all helping the Red Cross manage the dead bodies of Ebola victims. Their deaths occurred over 12 days, on 5, 15, and 16 May, respectively.
The World Health Organization’s director general, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, expressed his “deepest condolences” over the fatalities. “They paid the ultimate price on the line of duty,” he wrote.
Meanwhile British researchers announced they are producing an experimental jab for the Ebola strain behind the outbreak, which currently has no approved vaccines or therapeutics (read details below).
According to the latest updates (24 and 25 May), there are currently 101 confirmed Ebola cases in the DRC and 930 suspected cases.
There have so far been 223 deaths among people with suspected cases and 10 confirmed deaths. In Uganda, seven cases and one death have been confirmed. The outbreak-currently the third largest Ebola outbreak on record (based on confirmed and

Panic in the United States for Ebola after dangerous Tests in Pentagon-funded Ukraine Biolabs
Is there a reason Americans are so worried about the new Ebola epidemic in Africa?
Is it perhaps because the US Pentagon itself has been secretly researching this virus, conducting the usual experiments to enhance it as a bioweapon in top-secret laboratories in Ukraine?
In this article, we try to provide answers and confirmation to these questions…
US suspends entry of foreign citizens from Ebola-affected areas
The United States has suspended entry to non-US citizens who have been in Ebola-affected areas in the past 21 days: Uganda, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and South Sudan.
The measure, issued by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), will be in effect for the next 30 days and is justified by the need to “protect the health of the United States from the serious risk posed by the introduction of Ebola virus disease into the United States by these foreign nationals.”
At the moment it is one of the few countries to have taken this drastic health measure.
Just hours earlier, the United States announced that it had strengthened precautionary measures to prevent the spread of Ebola hemorrhagic fever, implementing health screenings for air travelers from affected areas and temporarily suspending visa services.
WHO will convene an emergency committee due to the rapid spread of the Ebola Bundibugio strain – VIDEO
WHO will convene an emergency committee due to the rapid spread of the Ebola Bundibugio strain.
“At the moment, 30 cases of the disease have been confirmed in the northern province of Ituri. Uganda has also reported two confirmed cases in the capital Kampala, including one death among two people who arrived from the Democratic Republic of the Congo,” said Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, head of the organization, during a briefing.
Breaking – WHO declares emergency as strain kills 100 in DRC and Uganda
A new outbreak of Ebola virus disease in central Africa, caused by the rare Bundibugyo version of the virus, has caused more than 300 suspected cases and killed 100 people, health officials have said.
The World Health Organization (WHO) has declared the situation a public health emergency of international concern.
The Africa Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (Africa CDC) has so far identified 336 suspected and 10 confirmed cases in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). There have been 87 deaths in the DRC to date. Uganda has had two confirmed cases and one additional death.
In response WHO has sent five tonnes of medical supplies to the DRC, and $500 000 (£374 000; €430 000) has been released from the agency’s contingency fund for emergencies.
This Ebola outbreak is causing particular concern because it has been caused by the Bundibugyo strain, which has been detected in only two previous outbreaks, in 2007 and 2012. There are no approved treatments or vaccines for Bundibugyo Ebola.
Pentagon Tests in Africa on Dangerous Virus before the last WHO Emergency
We republish below an excellent, albeit brief, investigative article by renowned American epidemiologist Nicolas Hulsher on the extraordinary coincidence of vaccine research funding granted to Big Pharma Moderna of Cambridge, Massachusetts, just months before the Ebola emergency in the DRC.
It is therefore true, as Hulsher expertly states, that the Ebola virus has little chance of becoming a pandemic, but it is equally true that this refers to the wild viral strain and not those with laboratory-enhanced genotypes(such as SARS-CoV-2, according to a CIA whistleblower) as recombinant synthetic pathogens, i.e., those obtained by inserting multiple pathogens, such as HIV-AIDS, into the Covid-19 virus.
Bill Gates-backed CEPI awarded Moderna and Oxford $26.7 million to develop multivalent Ebola mRNA in January 2026

Just a few months ago (January 2026), Bill Gates’ vaccine cartel CEPI gave Moderna and University of Oxford $26.7 million to begin developing Bundibugyo ebolavirus (BDBV) mRNA and viral vector injections. These are multivalent filovirus “vaccine” platforms, meaning they are designed to target multiple Ebola viruses and related filoviruses simultaneously — including Bundibugyo ebolavirus (BDBV).
WHO declared a Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC) over a Bundibugyo Ebola outbreak
Develop “vaccine” → Fearmonger new outbreak → Declare emergency → Gain power & control → push “vaccine” as only solution.
This marks the 17th Ebola outbreak recorded in the Democratic Republic of Congo since the virus was first identified there in 1976 — and the third known outbreak of the Bundibugyo strain since it was first identified in 2007. Across Africa, there have been dozens of Ebola outbreaks over the last 50 years.
No biological basis for this to become a worldwide pandemic.
Why? Because Ebola — including the Bundibugyo strain — spreads through direct contact with bodily fluids from symptomatic individuals, not through the air or casual contact.
There is simply no biological basis for this to become a worldwide pandemic.
So why the rapid escalation to a full Public Health Emergency of International Concern at this moment?
The WHO says because, as of May 16, there are 8 laboratory-confirmed cases, 246 suspected cases, and 80 suspected deaths in Ituri Province, with the outbreak spreading to Uganda. They cite the lack of any approved vaccines or treatments for this specific strain, high population mobility, and risk of further cross-border spread as major concerns.
However, perhaps they actually declared an emergency because the WHO’s pandemic treaty negotiations recently hit a major roadblock over the Pathogen Access and Benefit-Sharing (PABS) annex, preventing the treaty from being put into effect.
It also appears that the botched hantavirus situation didn’t yield the level of perceived fear they were hoping for.
There is simply no biological basis for this to become a worldwide pandemic.
Bill Gates is now the WHO’s top funder so nothing does should be accepted at face value.

UAE operator e& struck a deal with Uber to sell 12.5% of its stake in digital platform provider Careem Technologies for $100 million, leaving it with a 37.5% shareholding which the taxi app giant has an option to acquire the rest of.
Careem Technologies builds and operates its namesake app and related services. The app is used for various consumer services including food and grocery delivery, payment and other lifestyle services.
The deal is subject to regulatory approval and includes options which can be exercised by either side for Uber to buy e& out of Careem completely. The options can be activated between December 2031 or January 2032.
In a stock market statement, e& noted from the deal Careem would benefit from Uber’s experience and synergies with its global platforms.
For e& the sale reflects an “increased strategic focus on its core businesses and disciplined capital allocation priorities”, while allowing it to maintaining some exposure to the app business.
Uber already owns the other 50% of Careem Technologies and the entirety of the ride sharing business it was originally spun-off from.
Careem Technologies was separated from the taxi business in 2023, with e& taking a 50.03 per cent stake in that business in exchange for an investment of $400 million in it.
A newly released report alleges that well-placed elites in Cameroon’s government are enabling a cluster of timber and agribusiness companies to log primary forest in the country. These companies include Sextransbois, which was awarded a controversial 68,000-hectare (168,000-acre) logging concession in the Ebo Forest in 2023. The report by Swiss-based advocacy group Global Initiative Against Transnational Organized Crime (GI-TOC) also named SCIEB, which controls another concession in the Ebo Forest covering 65,000 hectares (161,000 acres). The report used corporate registry documents, trade records, and sources in Cameroon’s forestry sector to link both companies, along with Boiscam and Camvert, to prominent businessman Aboubakar Al Fatih. According to an “informal broker” who has worked to connect logging companies with forestry officials and was interviewed by GI-TOC, Al Fatih’s companies have benefitted from his ties to the minister of economy, Alamine Ousmane Mey. Mey is considered an ally of Cameroonian President Paul Biya’s eldest son Franck, who reportedly recommended him for a cabinet post in 2011. Sextransbois was incorporated by relatives of Franck Biya’s in 2014, before being transferred to then-20-year-old Mahmoud Mourtada, Al Fatih’s half-brother. The report implies that Al Fatih’s connections to figures in Franck Biya’s circle helped Sextransbois and SCIEB obtain their concessions in the Ebo Forest. Those concessions were awarded despite a global campaign to protect the forest, which is a biodiversity-rich habitat for threatened gorillas and chimpanzees. After initially walking back its decision to reclassify the forest as government land in 2020, the government quietly reissued the two…This article was originally published on Mongabay
Safaricom CEO Peter Ndegwa (pictured) believes Africa is no longer playing catch-up in global technologies, telling attendees of a key business conference in Kenya the continent is now holding its own in developing fresh business models and tapping emerging digitalisation trends.
In a string of posts on a popular micro-blogging site, the operator reported Ndegwa told the Academy of International Business (AIB) Conference nations are increasingly looking to Africa for fresh approaches to delivering growth and innovation.
Africa is now “co-creating new models” and its views are ever-more sought after, Ndegwa said.
The Safaricom boss noted Africa was not immune to global challenges, but argued “turbulence can also drive transformation”.
He pointed to the Covid-19 (coronavirus) pandemic as an example, explaining the operator group “had to navigate regulatory changes, currency pressure”, greater competition and cybersecurity challenges.
The challenges fuelled a shift from “telco to techco” as Safaricom recognised “adaptability is now a competitive advantage”.
He noted global uncertainties continue today due to “geopolitical tension, economic volatility” and various disruptive technology developments including AI, meaning the ability to swiftly adjust is still essential.
Ndegwa said the m-Pesa mobile money platform “remains the clearest example of African innovation” being used to address a local problem by looking to the bigger picture of what the system is for rather than focusing solely on technology.
He argued the platform shows what can be achieved in driving digital transformation when initiatives are backed by the right regulations and laws, along with “strong public-private collaborations”.

To effectively combat disease outbreaks like Ebola, it is necessary to strengthen and expand local health systems, rather than rely on temporary and often ineffective measures from foreign organizations.

Trump administration cuts to grants disbursed by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) likely resulted in a delayed response to the current Ebola outbreak in parts of central Africa, former federal health officials have said.
Though the virus was officially uncovered just last week, it’s believed that it had been spreading undetected for at least several weeks prior.
The Trump White House dismantled USAID last year, with the State Department absorbing its remaining necessary programs. The cuts affected billions of dollars in grant money for thousands of programs and nonprofit organizations around the world.
If left intact, some of that funding could have resulted in faster detection times for the current outbreak, former federal officials within USAID, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and the National Institutes of Health (NIH) told NBC News,
“What we’ve lost is speed, which is the most important thing in an outbreak like this,” said Nicholas Enrich, former acting assistant administrator for global health at USAID.
People who were once employed in programs funded by the U.S. have had to find new jobs, former CDC medical officer Daniel Bausch pointed out.
“Now they’re driving a taxi in Kinshasa or selling fruit somewhere. So this cadre of reasonably trained people that you can employ just isn’t around,” Bausch explained.
Heather Reoch Kerr, country director for the International Rescue Committee (IRC) in the DRC, also said the lack of funding is disrupting the response to the Ebola outbreak.
“Many facilities in affected areas are operating without basic protective supplies” because of cuts to USAID, Reoch Kerr said.
World Health Organization (WHO) Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus recently addressed the outbreak, saying that health officials within the organization are prepared to tackle the situation head-on. However, “we are facing an extremely serious and difficult outbreak,” Tedros added. “It will get worse before it gets better.”
The cuts to USAID, as well as the Trump administration’s decision to exit WHO (a choice that was finalized earlier this year), will undoubtedly disrupt global health responses, like what’s being seen in central Africa right now, health experts predicted.
The cuts have “disrupted the ability for contact tracing to happen, for those preventive activities to be mounted very well,” Abraham Leno, director of government relations for the humanitarian organization Alight, told The Hill.
Other experts predicted this outcome several months ago.
“Because of these two decisions and the long-lasting consequences, lives will be lost,” said Lindsey Locks, an assistant professor of Global Health at Boston University, in an op-ed last year.
Beyond disease outbreaks, the Trump administration’s decisions will “reverse decades of progress in reducing malnutrition and hunger worldwide,” Locks said.
The administration’s moves to dismantle international health infrastructure will “weaken the shared governance architecture for outbreak preparedness and response,” Chatham House fellow Ebere Okereke wrote in January.
“The WHO’s authority has been diminished,” Okereke added, noting, “Disease surveillance depends on trust.”
