Queues outside shops, banks in Burundi's capital

Long queues formed outside shops and banks in the Burundian capital Bujumbura on Saturday, witnesses said, as people took advantage of a day-long pause in protests against the president’s decision to run for a third term.

A total of 19 people have died in the demonstrations against Pierre Nkurunziza’s plan to run again, which its opponents say violates the Cconstitution and a peace deal that ended an ethnically-charged civil war in 2005.
