The Government of Rwanda has declared Monday as public holiday.

This holiday is annually declared on April 7 for the genocide Against the Tutsi Memorial Day.

It is a day off for the general population, and schools and most businesses are closed.

The date marks the beginning of the genocide perpetrated against members of the Tutsi minority by the Hutu extremist-led government. Within just over 100 days, more than 1 million Tutsi were systematically murdered. Moderate Hutu and others who opposed the massacres were also killed during this period.
