AP Archive | Zaire - Refugee Health And Housing @APArchive | Uploaded 3 days ago | Updated 18 hours ago
(4 Aug 1994) News spread quickly in the Kibumba refugee camp in Zaire on
Thursday (4/8) of the opening of a new medical centre by the
British Red Cross. The tented medical centre will be able to accommodate around 400 patients at any one time. Hundreds of thousands of Rwandan refugees are remaining defiant in the face of the
widespread disease, death and appalling condition in which they
live in the refugee camps around Goma and ignoring calls to return
to their homeland. Instead they are preparing to sit out the rainy
season, stripping surrounding forests of timber to assemble
makeshift homes
