Influx of people from DR Congo - 17 January 2026

Type de document: Dashboards & Factsheets , CORE
Langue(s): 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.
