Three killed and 27 injured in grenade attacks in Burundi capital

‘Grenade attacks on two cafes killed at least three people and wounded 27 others in the Burundian capital of Bujumbura, police and hospital sources said on Friday.
Police spokesman Pierre Nkurikiye told reporters that one person died at the scene and 29 others were rushed to hospital after grenades were thrown into two bars in the Buyenzi district on Thursday night. Hospital sources said two people died of their injuries later.
One survivor, who asked not to be named, said the attackers had not attempted to rob the bars or the patrons.
Burundi has suffered from periodic low-level violence since 2015, when President Pierre Nkurunziza decided to seek a third term in office.’
