Reports of another attack on an Ebola treatment centre in the DRC

Reports from the Democratic Republic of Congo say an Ebola treatment centre has been destroyed in a suspected arson attack in Mongwalu, in Ituri province.

The attack comes just days after protesters set fire to a hospital in the same region, after health workers refused to release the body of a patient over fears of contamination.
We hear how the regional security situation is affecting the response to the outbreak - and about the impact of the disease on women.
