Influx of people from DR Congo - 19 December 2025

Document Type: Panel de indicadores y hojas informativas , CORE
Document Language: English,French
Following the mass arrival of Congolese refugees in Burundi, fleeing violent clashes in South Kivu, particularly around Kamanyola, Luvungi, Katogota and Uvira, the security situation has deteriorated significantly. These clashes have caused a significant influx since 5 December, with thousands of people entering Burundi at the entry points of Buganda, Gatumba and Rumonge. A counting system is in place to track movements, but the trend indicates a worsening situation requiring urgent mobilisation for registration and assistance.
