Shrine

Forensic experts secure the scene of a bomb blast near the Munyonyo Martyrs' Catholic Shrine in the Munyonyo suburb of Kampala, Uganda June 3, 2025, as Ugandans assembled to celebrate Martyrs' Day, which commemorates Christians who were killed for their faith in the 19th century. The explosion killed two suspected rebels, including a female suicide bomber in Uganda's capital, but no other people were reported hurt, authorities said.
