About the time in Buta
Sunrise today lands at 06:18 and sunset at 06:30 local time, giving 12h 12m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (2.80, 24.73) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Buta.
Buta follows the civil time used across its region of Democratic Republic of the Congo; there is no separate local reckoning inside the city.
The zone identifier Africa/Lubumbashi is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but Africa/Lubumbashi keeps pointing at Lubumbashi time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
