- What we still need to remember from the news, starting with the story of around thirty children torn from the war in Rwanda.
- A break in horror for 32 Rwandan children who arrived this morning at Orly on the initiative of Doctors of the World. 32 Tutsi and Hutu suffering from wounds too serious to be treated on the spot. Ankle and thigh tendons severed with machetes, bodies bruised by bullets or shrapnel, legs amputated, they are aged from three weeks to 16 years old.
- Bernard Granjon, President of Doctors of the World: "We found these children in the hospital, where they were brought to us, or in the camps where we went to look for them. They are children who were found wandering , in the woods. As for this three-week-old premature baby, who weighs 1.7 kilos, she was discovered under the body of her dead mother and picked up."
- Cared for in hospitals, they will then be entrusted to foster families. These children will stay three months in France and then they will be repatriated.
