A 20-year-old woman was killed by lightning on Thursday evening in Kisoro District.

The deceased, identified as Evaline Nyiramugisha, a resident of Bucuzi Village, Buhumbu Parish in Busanza Sub-County, was struck while harvesting sweet potatoes in a garden during a heavy downpour.

According to residents, her sister, who was with her at the time, witnessed the tragic incident and raised an alarm, but nothing could be done as Nyiramugisha died instantly.

Just two hours earlier, a related tragedy had occurred at St. Paul’s Rugarambiro Secondary School in Nyundo Sub-County, where lightning struck Senior One and Senior Two classrooms at around 2:30 p.m. during another downpour.

The school’s head teacher, Emmanuel Obiyari, confirmed that 14 students were injured, six of whom are in critical condition. All the victims were rushed to Kisoro Hospital for treatment.

This latest incident follows another fatal lightning strike last month in Rukundo Town Council. In that tragedy, Evasta Nyiramugisha, a resident of Kabalaga Village, and her grandchildren, Ashavin Mwabahishe and Jersey Nyiramucyo, were killed when lightning struck their home as they sheltered from the rain around 2:00 p.m.
