1)Although generally perceived to be a genocide by the international community, the 1994 killing of approximately 800,000 Tutsis in Rwanda was seen at the time by Hutus as a response to the assassination of a Hutu president.

Mass killings began after the April 6, 1994, attack on Rwandan President Juvenal Habyarimana and Burundian President Cyprien Ntaryamira, both Hutu, who died after the plane in which they were traveling was shot down.

2) The correct answer is C. The Hutu militia group responsible for carrying out widespread murders in Rwanda in 1994 was the Interahamwe.  

The Interahamwe was a paramilitary group that was formed in Rwanda during its civil war, formed mostly by people of the Hutu ethnic group. These forces, along with elements of the Presidential Guard, were responsible for the deaths of nearly 800,000 people in the Rwandan Genocide in 1994 against the Tutsi ethnic group.

3) The correct answer is B. One significant consequence of the 1994 Rwandan genocide was that over 1 million children were orphaned.

Probably, it will never be known how many deaths caused this genocide. They are calculated between 500,000 and 1,000,000. If they were 800,000 it would be equivalent to 11 percent of the total population and 80% of the Tutsis who lived in the country. In addition, genocide and civil conflict led to the exile of two million Rwandans in then-Zaire, 480,000 in Tanzania, 200,000 in Burundi and 10,000 in Uganda, along with more than a million internally displaced persons.
