description: "Most outlets reported the World Health Organization's plea for increased support to address the ongoing Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Both excerpts highlighted the WHO's call and described the outbreak as severe, with Arab News Pakistan using \"bigges\" (likely a typo for \"biggest\") and 24 News HD using \"raging\" to describe the situation. The framing of the outbreak's intensity varied slightly, but both emphasized the need for broader support."
