More than 100 trucks hauling copper from the Democratic Republic of Congo have been denied entry into Botswana over fears of an Ebola outbreak in Congo, leaving the trucks stranded at a border crossing, local media reported on Thursday. The trucks, en route to South Africa from Democratic Republic of Congo, have been stranded in neighbouring Zambia since Monday, when they were denied entry into Botswana, the Times of Zambia newspaper reported. Democratic Republic of Congo on Sunday declared an Ebola outbreak in its northern Equateur province, about 1,200 km (750 miles) north of the capital, Kinshasa.
