Two new cases of Ebola in the frontier city of Goma in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo causes friction with Rwanda, after they closed the border out of fear of the disease spreading. 

Fears that Ebola could spread to neighbouring countries have mounted after the first two deaths in July at a transport hub adjacent to Gisenyi, Rwanda.

President Felix Tshisekedi´s office says  Rwanda had made a unilateral decision to close its border, a choice that was reversed eight hours later.
