Burundian youths jump over a burning baricade

Four people were killed and some 30 wounded in a series of grenade attacks in Burundi, one week ahead of key parliamentary elections, police said Monday.

"It is clear that all these grenade attacks are related to each other, this is a terror campaign organised by opponents of the third term of President Pierre Nkurunziza, to destabilize and try to prevent the elections," a senior police officer said.
