Three people have died in grenade attacks in Bujumbura, the capital, a spokesman for the public security ministry said Saturday, during a week of street protests against President Pierre Nkurunziza’s decision to seek a third term. Two police officers were killed in an attack on a police station and a civilian was killed in another blast, said Pierre Nkurikiye. Seventeen people were wounded in the two attacks, which occurred on Friday night, he said. The police have arrested two suspects, Mr. Nkurikiye said. At least six people have been killed in recent clashes with the police, according to the Burundi Red Cross.
