GENEVA, April 8 (Reuter) - U.N. secretary general Boutros-Boutros Ghali
said he was preparing an urgent report for the Security Council on
measures to take to protect U.N. personnel in Rwanda after the death of
10 Belgian soldiers.

In a statement read by his spokeswoman in Geneva, he deplored the
deaths of Rwanda's prime minister as well as the 10 Belgians who were
serving as U.N. peace keepers in Kigali.

The secretary general is urgently preparing a report to the Security
Council on the measures to take so as to protect the U.N. personnel in
Rwanda,
said the statement.

U.N. sources said any decision on evacuating U.N. staff from Rwanda
would be taken directly by the secretary-general, who arrived in Geneva
late on Thursday for a five-day visit to U.N. European headquarters.
