Kenya Airways to suspend flights to Freetown, Monrovia due to Ebola

Kenya Airways will suspend flights to Liberia's capital Monrovia and Sierra Leone's capital Freetown due to the Ebola outbreak in West Africa, the company said on Saturday. The suspension of the flights will start at midnight on Tuesday Aug. 19, Kenya Airways said in a statement. The company said it took the decision on the advice of Kenya's Ministry of Health, which is keen to prevent the importation of a case of Ebola into the country. Kenya will not allow passengers from Liberia, Guinea and Sierra Leone into the country starting next Tuesday, the private Citizen Television said on its website, quoting the Minister of Health James Macharia.
