Democratic Republic of Congo’s health ministry said that 24 patients have fled an Ebola treatment centre in Beni on Thursday.
The patients had to flee when it came under attack by people protesting the cancellation of Sunday’s presidential election in the eastern city.
Ministry spokeswoman Jessica Ilunga told Reuters that 17 of the patients had already tested negative for Ebola, while seven had not yet been tested.

Health officials have addresses and phone numbers for the remaining four, she added.
