AP - At least 47 people died when a motorized boat sank on a river in Congo, and more than 100 people are missing, a district official said Friday.

Anti-malaria medication are being made available free to children and pregnant women in Congo.

Yellow fever is sweeping through the thousands of Congolese expelled from Angola, an official says.

A Congolese jetliner carrying 79 passengers and crew crashed on takeoff Tuesday, careening off a runway into a busy neighborhood and bursting into flames.

At least 21 people were killed, but most of those aboard survived, an airline official said.
