DRC / Burundi Refugees / A woman stands in the shade in a makeshift camp in Luvungi not far from the Ruzizi river where in the past weeks many of them crossed the border between Burundi and DRC.
More than 9000 Burundians refugees have crossed into the DRC over the past few weeks. The new
arrivals are being hosted by local families, but the growing numbers are straining
available support. Work is ongoing to identify a site
where all the refugees can be moved, and from where they can have access to
facilities such as schools, health centers and with proper security. / UNHCR / F.Scoppa / May 2015
