On 30 March 2016, UNICEF, working on containing a new case of EBOLA outbreak in the eastern part of Guinea, requested the support of emergency.lu.
There was no local GSM or ISP coverage in the area, a situation that was hampering the overall response capacity.
Luxembourg dispatched a team of two Civil Protection volunteers to the area to install an emergency.lu rapid deployment kit in Koropara.
