Rwanda 'continuing to support Burundi rebels'

The report by UN experts also accuses Rwanda of continuing to support Burundian rebels seeking to oust President Pierre Nkurunziza.

It says that training, financing and logistical support for the rebels did not stop last year, as some Western officials have assumed.

The UN Security Council sanctions committee is to discuss the report later today.

Rwanda denies claims that it is meddling in Burundi.

President Nkurunziza was elected for a third term in July last year, but his controversial decision to run again sparked months of violence – and it is exactly a year since he survived a coup attempt.
