A Congolese journalist who had been raising awareness on the Ebola virus in DR Congo has been killed in his house.

The army said unidentified attackers raided Papy Mumbere Mahamba’s house in Lwebma, in the north-eastern province of Ituri, killing him, wounding his wife and burning their house down.

DR Congo is experiencing the world’s second-worst Ebola epidemic on record. People working to stop the virus are often targeted.
