Gunmen Kill 5 on U.N. Rights Team

Gunmen ambushed a U.N. human rights team in a Hutu stronghold in southwestern Rwanda, killing five people in the third attack on international aid workers in recent weeks. Two human rights monitors, a Briton and a Cambodian, and two Rwandan local employees were killed immediately. A fifth man, also a Rwandan, was shot in the stomach and died after he underwent surgery. In Geneva, U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights Jose Ayala Lasso ordered monitors working in the western part of the country to evacuate to Kigali, the capital.
