KIBEHO, Rwanda
U.N. troops abandoned a corpse
strewn schoolhouse housing hun
dreds of refugees too scared to
leave after seeing 2,000 of their
neighbors shot or trampled to
death.
Rwandan troops surrounded the
school at the Kibeho refugee camp,
pointing rifles at the 600 refugees
barricaded inside and demanding
they come out.
The refugees “insist they’d rath
er remain here. There’s nothing
we can do,” said Maj. Michael
Anoufrien, a U.N. peacekeeper.

Inside the schoolhouse, several

“Please find us another place to

The Tutsi-led government vowed
not to seek revenge against Hutu

But aid workers and witnesses

Zulu nationalist
calls for resistance
By Ann Eveleth
Associated Press Writer
UMLAZI, South Africa
Zulu nationalist Mangosuthu
Buthelezi on Sunday urged his
followers to “rise and resist”
Nelson Mandela’s government,
which he painted as the enemy of
Zulu sovereignty and tradition.
Buthelezi’s speech to about
5,000 people in a soccer stadium
near Durban could unleash a new
wave of hostility between his
Inkatha Freedom Party and
Mandela’s African National Con
gress. Thousands of people have
died in fighting between Zulu
supporters of the ANC and those
supporting Inkatha in the east
ern province of KwaZulu-Natal.
“KwaZulu-Natal must rise and
resist the central government,”
Buthelezi said.“We must resist
the central government, which
has given a clear indication of
pursuing plans from which great
evil will arise.”
Buthelezi expressed fears that

The ANC, Inkatha and the Na

former ruling party, agreed to*
foreign mediation in a compra-,

South Africa’s first all-race elec¢-’
