Rwandan army chief of staff Colonel Ephrem Rwabalinda is received at the military cooperation mission in Paris by General Huchon, who says, “it is necessary to provide all the evidence proving the legitimacy of the war that Rwanda is waging, so as to turn international opinion in its favour and be able to resume bilateral cooperation. Meanwhile, the French military cooperation service is preparing measures to save us”. Encrypted communication equipment is provided to allow regular and confidential contact between Paris and Kigali. Refugees continue to return to Rwanda. In three days, 500 people cross from Tanzania back to Rwanda. The returnees tell Radio Muhabura that they had run away from the massacres committed by the MRND militia. A mortar shell lands in Amahoro Stadium and kills one UNAMIR soldier.
