Uburundi bwategetse ko abantu bose bo mu Gatumba mu ntara ya Bujumbura baba mu bibanza bibangamirwa n’imyuzure y’amazi babwirizwa kwimurwa bitarenze indwi zibiri.
Ababwirizwa kwimuka barimwo abo mu bice bimwe bimwe vya Gatumba, aho Imiryango irenga 200 yomowe n'imyuzure yo muri ino ndwi.
Ubutegetsi bw’umurwa mukuru w’ubutunzi, Bujumbura, n’abwo bwafashe ingingo yo kwagura inzuzi nka Kanyosha inyuma y'imisi ibiri imyuzure yatewe n'imvura nyinshi ihitanye abantu 3, batanu ntawuramenya irengero ryabo, ibomora amazu arenga 300 muri karitiye ya Kibenga no mu gatumba.
Aho mu Gatumba, ku rubibe Uburundi buhana na Kongo amarira yari yose. Uruzi Rusizi rwisuka mu Kiyaga ca Tanganyika rwaruzuye kubera imvura yaguye muri Kongo hamwe no mu Rwanda, bigahurirana n’amazi yavuye mu nzuzi nka Muha na Ntahangwa zica mu gisagara ca Bujumbura.

Abajejwe intwaro bavuga ko amazu arenga 300 ari yo amaze guharurwa ko yabomotse mu Gatumba no mu gisagara ca Bujumbura muri Kartiye ya Kibenga.
Aho hose abasigaye mu kangaratete bafise ubwoba ko ingwara zituruka kw’isuku rike zibafata, bagatakambira ishirahamwe Croix Rouge kubaronsa amazi meza yo kunywa, no kubakirwa amazu.

Mwijoro rishira uwa gatatu kandi, mu misozi ihanamiye igisagara ca Bujumbura imvura nyinshi yatumye inzuzi Kanyosha, Muha na Ntahangwa zica hagati mu gisagara zuzura.
Yamara Kanyosha ni rwo rwataye inzira maze amazi yirara mu mazu cane cane ayegereye ikiyaga ca Tanganyika muri karitiye ya Kibenga, mu bumanuko bw’igisagara, kuva mu mutwenzi wo kuri uyu wa gatatu. Abantu batari bake ntibagira aho bakika umusaya. Abaganiriye n’Ijwi rya Amerika kuri uyu wa kane baratakamba.
