Description :
The ICRC uses transit boats on Lake Tanganyika, particularly between the towns of Uvira and Baraka. These boats are generally used to transport humanitarian goods, personnel, or to evacuate people as part of their humanitarian missions.
Lake Tanganyika, being one of the largest and deepest lakes in the world, plays a crucial role in transport and logistics in this region, where land infrastructure is often limited.
