Discovery of Rwandan genocide victims continues after 30 years
It’s been 30 years since a genocide in Rwanda that saw 800,000 ethnic Tutsi killed by Hutu fighters.
Three decades on, mass graves are still being discovered.
With shovels and garden hoes, villagers are digging where a house once stood in Rwanda to reveal a mass grave filled with bones.
Skulls, teeth and other shards of bone are placed carefully into plastic bags while shoes and tattered clothing – possible clues to identify loved ones never found – are collected elsewhere.
Discoveries of mass graves are remarkably frequent even three decades after the 1994 slaughter instigated by the Hutu extremist regime in Rwanda at the time.
