Conflict in Burundi


BBC - Burundi's army has launched a counter-attack in the hills around Bujumbura after the capital was shelled by suspected rebels. Four soldiers and 10 rebels were killed in the clashes, the government says.

A BBC correspondent in the city says the sound of explosions and gunfire could be heard throughout the night. Peace deals have been signed with most of Burundi's rebel groups - including one which now forms the government - except the FNL, which remains active. The military's deputy spokesman Colonel Justace Ciza said the fighting had broken out in Bubanza, 50km (30 miles) north-west of the capital, Bujumbura. "FNL rebels shelled mortar bombs and threw hand grenades on our different positions... but we retaliated," he said, Reuters news agency reports. He also told the AFP news agency there were clashes in numerous locations around the city following a "major attack" by the rebels. Read more.

Better together



Love is the answer
at least for most of the questions in my heart, like
Why are we here? And where do we go?
And how come it's so hard?
It's not always easy and
sometimes life can be deceiving
