Democratic Republic of the Congo: Border closure paralyzes life in Goma.

Goma, Democratic Republic of the Congo - May 29, 2026 Motorbike taxi drivers wait for passengers at the nearly empty Grande Barriere border crossing between Goma, Democratic Republic of the Congo, and Rwanda on May 29, 2026. Rwandan authorities closed the crossing on May 17, two days after an Ebola outbreak was declared, severely disrupting cross-border trade and transportation that residents depend on for their livelihoods.
