Who killed the President of Rwanda?

To this day that is still in dispute. The Hutu dominated government and media immediately claimed that the Tutsi rebel group the Rwanda Patriotic Front was responsible for the 1994 killing but there are many suspicious aspects of the assassination. For example, the black box from the plane mysteriously disappeared. It is also difficult to understand how the RPF would benefit from the assassination since the President was on the verge of creating peace in Rwanda. From what I understand no one has ever been charged and no concrete proof has ever been brought forth connecting the event to the RPF or any other group for that matter. the tutsi rebels

What led to the Rwandan genocide?

The two major ethnic groups in Rwanda (Hutu and Tutsi) had a history of competition and conflicting territorial claims. A civil war with the Hutu-dominated government was fought from 1990 to 1993 by a Tutsi rebel force (RPF) based in Uganda, and continued despite a cease-fire agreement. After a similar civil war broke out in neighboring Burundi, the Hutu presidents of both Burundi and Rwanda were assassinated in April, 1994. This triggered a Hutu-led massacre of hundreds of thousands of Rwandans, both Tutsi and moderate Hutus. This was only ended after the takeover of Rwanda by the Tutsi (RPF) military government.

Why did civil war break out in Rwanda?

The Rwandan Civil War broke out in 1990 primarily due to ethnic tensions between the Hutu and Tutsi groups, stemming from historical grievances and political power struggles following Rwanda's independence from Belgium. The establishment of a Hutu-led government marginalized the Tutsi population, leading to resentment and the emergence of the Tutsi-led Rwandan Patriotic Front (RPF), which sought to reclaim power and address discrimination. The conflict escalated with the invasion of RPF forces in 1990, ultimately culminating in the 1994 genocide against the Tutsi, where an estimated 800,000 individuals were killed in just a few months.
