RDF Eye Campaign: Rwanda’s Defence Force has launched a nationwide, free eye-care drive with partners to screen and treat preventable blindness, targeting at least 6,000 cataract surgeries across all 30 districts over the next three months—aimed at cutting delays that cost people their sight. Rwanda Budget Watch: The government has set aside Rwf 138.3bn in the 2026/27 budget for WASH projects to expand clean water and sanitation, responding to intermittent supply in parts of Kigali and beyond. Cost-of-Living Pressure: Inflation jumped to 13% in April as transport, health services, energy, housing and food costs rose. Health Diplomacy: A Chinese medical team held workplace check-ups in Kigali, continuing long-running cross-border support for local health workers. Regional Context: UN criticism continues over reports of possible ICTR prisoner transfers to Rwanda, with families warning of health and legal risks.
