In Rwanda, the death toll from Tuesday's floods rose to 131 dead, 94 injured and more than 5,500 homes destroyed. Among the harshly impacted infrastructures, roads are for some completely impassable.

This makes cleaning complicated, as well as the return of some locals. In the Western Province, on the stretch between the towns of Rubavu and Rutsiro, traffic is gradually resuming. The cleaning of the buildings continues, to restore them to working order.
