2026 Ebola epidemic (en.wikipedia.org)

On 14 May 2026, an epidemic of Ebola was reported in the Ituri Province of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). It is the 17th Ebola outbreak in the DRC and began only five months after the end of the previous outbreak. <…> An imported case from the DRC was also reported in France.

P.S. I wonder if we, like the Reddit counterpart, allow asking questions about Wikipedia itself here. I have a PocketBook device that doesn't support Kiwix. Is it possible to convert entire Kiwix archive file to EPUB?
