In December 2023 heavy rains in the commune of Muhuta flooded hundreds of hectares of crop fields, causing landslides. A woman and her two children died when they were swept away by the Nyamusenyi stream. A week later their bodies were found in a pile of mud. Lightning injured people in the commune, social infrastructure was damaged and dozens of hectares of crop fields were damaged.{{sfn|Nzorubonanya|2023}}
