During the genocide in Rwanda in 1994, numerous human rights were violated, including the right to life, as an estimated 800,000 Tutsi and moderate Hutu were systematically murdered. The genocide also involved widespread acts of torture, sexual violence, and inhumane treatment, violating the rights to personal security and dignity. Additionally, the right to freedom from discrimination was severely breached, as the violence was rooted in ethnic hatred against the Tutsi population. The failure to protect these rights constitutes a grave violation of international human rights law.
