RWANDA-WAR-GENOCIDE-REFUGEES

A Ghanaian United Nations soldier watches over some Tutsi refugees on June 20, 1994 in Kigali, as they wait to be evacuated from the Holy Family church to Kabuga on the outskirts of the Rwandan capital. On April 6, 1994, the death of the Presidents of Burundi and Rwanda in a plane crash caused by a rocket attack, triggered several weeks of systematic and large-scale massacres targeting the Tutsi population and moderate Hutus in Rwanda. The number of murdered victims of the Rwandan genocide is about 800,000. Between 150,000 and 250,000 women were also raped.
