In Rwanda

Robert talks to NPR's Jennifer Ludden in Gisenyi, Rwanda, about the mass return of refugees from the nearby town of Goma, Zaire. Relief agencies are scrambling to handle the unexpected crush of roughly half a million people who returned over the past four days. As the throngs have headed home, families have been separated, and relief agencies are caring for a few thousand children who can't find their parents. Meanwhile, returnees face the situation of returning home to find their houses occupied by squatters.
