Attackers set fire to another Ebola treatment center

An Ebola treatment center in the Democratic Republic of the Congo was set on fire by gun-wielding attackers yesterday, just days after another facility was also torched. Both facilities were run by Doctors Without Borders, also known as MSF, which denounced the attack as "deplorable." The Congolese Ministry of Health said all the medical staff were safe and unharmed, as were all the patients who remained in the facility. But health workers are seeking four confirmed and 32 suspected cases who fled amid the attack. The Ebola outbreak is the second largest on record, with more than 875 people infected and more than 550 dead.
