    UNICEF is to facilitate "cross-border school exams" for Burundian refugees in western Tanzania. It said that over the next few weeks, the exams would arrive from Burundi and would be returned to the country for grading after refugee schoolchildren completed them in the camps. According to UNICEF, about 6,000 Burundians have entered Kibondo camp since 6 April.
