The flow of returning Rwandan refugees slowed to a trickle Monday,
and reconnaissance planes found more than 150,000 of them 45 miles
southwest of Goma, Zaire, moving away from Rwanda. It appeared that
those refugees moving deeper into Zaire were being led by Rwandan
Hutu militias and probably do not intend to return home, the United
Nations said. A UN team reached the Zairian town of Numbi, but
found only small groups of refugees moving toward Goma, the crossing
point for more than a half-million Rwandans who have returned home
the past two weeks after 2 1/2 years in exile.
