BUJUMBURA - About 20,000 Hutu refugees from Burundi fled their camp in eastern Zaire yesterday after it was attacked by armed men, aid officials said. The assailants were believed to be Banyamulenge, ethnic Tutsis recently ordered out of Zaire by provincial authorities.
"Four refugees were killed and six wounded in the attack," said a UN source from neighbouring Burundi. About 20,000 refugees, "almost the whole camp", were moving to camps further north wards, an aid worker said.
