Masacres are beginning!

Two days after the shooting of the Rwanda President the massacre of Ginkodo initiated. Hundreds of Tutsis were killed in the Pallottine Missionary Catholic Church. Due to the evidence that the attackers, were clearly targeting the Tutsi, the Ginkodo Massacre was the first prominent sign that a genocide was occurring. Less than a week after, another massacre took place at the Nyarubuye Roman Catholic Church. Thousands of Tutsi were killed, first by grenades and guns then by machetes and clubs.

The picture above shows the bodies of Tutsis who where hacked to death while fleeing towards safety, seen here wasting away in the street.
