Burundi’s Pierre Nkurunziza Rules Out Fourth Term

Burundi’s President Pierre Nkurunziza says he will not run for a fourth term, as deadly protests against his third-term bid continue in the capital.

Mr Nkurunziza called for an immediate end to the protests so that elections could be held peacefully in June.

The Red Cross said one person was killed and nine injured in the latest protests, raising the number of people killed since 25 April to 13.

The unrest is the worst to hit Burundi since a civil war ended in 2005.

Mr Nkurunziza has rejected pressure from the US to step down.
