Last update: 10 hours ago

AU Defence Session: Burundi hosted the 18th AU Specialized Technical Committee on Defence, Safety and Security, with a Sahrawi Republic delegation taking part and reaffirming support for AU peace and security structures. Education & Youth: President Évariste Ndayishimiye says Burundi will build a boarding centre for 3,000 children with UNICEF support, while SOS Médias Burundi reports boarding schools in Burunga are still short of beds, teachers, water and funding. Rights & Repression Claims: The Iteka League alleges 3,157 deaths, 283 disappearances/abductions and 3,349 arbitrary arrests during Ndayishimiye’s six years, renewing debate with authorities who dispute the figures. Religious Justice: Thirty years after Archbishop Joachim Ruhuna’s 1996 assassination, his family and church leaders say no verdict has been reached and continue to demand accountability. Transport Pressure in Bujumbura: Fuel shortages keep “canga canga” taxi drivers in conflict with police over informal payments. Regional Humanitarian/Refugees: UNHCR says South Sudan hosts 661,529 refugees and asylum-seekers, and Rwanda plans an economic empowerment programme for 1,600 refugee families in Mahama.
