Nepali Army plans 21-day isolation for peacekeepers returning from Ebola-hit Congo

Decision comes amid an outbreak of Bundibugyo strain that has killed at least 144 people and infected over 600 in Congo and Uganda since late April.

Amid concerns over possible transmission of the Ebola virus, the Nepali Army has decided to enforce mandatory 21-day isolation for its peacekeeper troops returning from the Democratic Republic of Congo.
