Abstract
After the fall of Butare, the RPF took control of the surrounding villages, but it said it did not want to push its advantage until it came into contact with the French forces. For his part, General Germanos, Deputy Chief of Staff of the Armed Forces in charge of operations, impatiently awaits help from humanitarian organizations.
