Between April and June, a span of about 100 days, 800,000 Tutsis and Hutus were killed. It all started with the killing of their President, who's plane was shot down. It was said that the Hutus were trying to eliminate the Tutsis population. The Tutsis led a military campaign to control the country but by then about 800,000 Tutsis and Hutus were killed. Two million Hutus fled to Zaire were they joined forces with the Zairean people to attack local Tutsis; most of the Hutus were responsible for the massacre. After making a peace deal Kinshasa, Rwanda was accused of training rebel troops in DR Congo which they denied. Now the country is trying to rebuild their economy.

This article was very shocking because the killing of 800,000 people in 100 days is crazy. This all pretty much started because of the killing of the Rwanda president. I think it was very rude for the United States and other places not to aid them in their time of need. 800,000 people dying in war is too many. Also what I thought was interesting was that many Genocides happened along time ago but this one happened now and just ended with a peace deal this year.
