While browsing news stories on the internet, i came across this interesting website that posted pictures and stories of several women who were raped during the genocide and forced to raise the children that came from it. During the Rwandan genocide, an estimated quarter to half a million women were raped, gang raped or raped with objects.
"The special Rapporteur on Rwanda has reported that arou nd 2000 - 5000 women in Rwanda have become pregnant as a result of rape" [1]
