Uganda last week resumed repatriation of Burundian refugees from several settlements across the country, an exercise that had stopped following logistical challenges between the two countries and United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR).
Unlike the first team that used chartered Uganda Airlines flights last month, the refugees will go back home by road due to limited resources.
