Something that hardly made the press in 'The West'. The fighting in Burundi intensified. The fighting was very close to the centre of Bujumbura this time. Is always it is not very clear who started it. More and more I get the feeling it will last forever. Every so often there is news of a breakthrough but shortly after that one of the parties will have an excuse to start fighting again and blame the other party.
So at the moment I am happy that I don't have to go there. On the other hand I do feel sorry for the guys over there.
For the family: don't worry it stays in Burundi, apparently the fighting seems restricted to a belt around Bujumbura (the rest of the country is so poor, it can not support the resistance).
