Oil Sector Leadership: The Petroleum Authority of Uganda named Otonga Michael Ochan as Acting Executive Director after Ernest Rubondo’s term ended, while a substantive successor is being processed. Health Watch: WHO says DRC’s Ebola outbreak still has unknown transmission chains, with deaths continuing in communities; Uganda’s earlier Ebola response is contrasted with the ongoing crisis. Migration Politics: EU countries move toward “return hubs” outside the bloc for rejected asylum seekers, with Uganda and Rwanda mentioned as possible locations. Justice for Survivors: A coalition petitioned Parliament and police over resourcing gaps that block SGBV survivors from getting justice. Trade & Transport: Trucks queued at Busia after a cargo scanner broke down, delaying goods bound for the DRC.
