Marketplace
Peacekeepers arrest 4 suspects
PRISTINA, Yugoslavia (AP) —
Two rifle-propelled grenades ex
ploded yesterday in an outdoor
suburban market packed with
Serbs, killing two people and injur
ing dozens of others, NATO said.
In response, Serbs blocked
Kosovo’s main highway and de
manded better security. Hundreds
of vehicles were backed up for
miles on the road from Pristina to
Pec, while British soldiers pre
vented traffic from reaching the
roadblock.
NATO said 39 people were in
jured in the explosions, which oc
curred at about 10 a.m. in the
outdoor market in Kosovo Polje,
just west of the provincial capital,
Pristina. But head nurse Jasmina
Brosic at Kosovo Polje hospital
said 47 were injured, five of them
seriously. She said the two dead
were middle-aged men.
Peacekeepers arrested four
people — two of them ethnic Al
banians and the others unidenti
fied, NATO spokesperson Maj.
Ole Irgens said.
Dusan Ristic, a Serb official in
Kosovo, blamed ethnic Albanian
extremists for the attack, calling it
a “massacre.” Ristic told Yu
goslavia’s independent Beta news
agency that Kosovo Polje and sur
rounding Serb villages had been
under constant attacks by ethnic
Albanians in the past days.
In Belgrade, the Yugoslav gov
ernment blamed the attack on
NATO and U.N. “leniency and tol
erance” toward the former rebel
Kosovo Liberation Army, which
last week disbanded and reformed
as the Kosovo Protection Corps.
NATO and the United Nations call
the new corps a civilian organiza
tion, but Yugoslavia said the attack
proved the demilitarization of the
KLA was far from complete.
“The KLA may recently have
changed its name and undergone
cosmetic alterations, but it con
tinues to spread terror and thus
prevails in Kosovo,” Stanimir Vu-
kicevic, Yugoslavia’s liaison with
NATO and the United Nations, ac
cording to the state Tanjug news
agency said.
This grenade attack took place
as French police announced the
arrest of four Serbs in connection
with the massacre of more than 20
ethnic Albanians taken from their
homes in Kosovska Mitrovica dur
ing NATO’s 78-day bombing cam
paign against Yugoslavia.
Serb irregulars are suspected of
having killed thousands of people
during their 18-month crackdown
on ethnic Albanians.
The crackdown in the province
ended in June, when Yugoslav
President Slobodan Milosevic ac
cepted a U.N.-backed peace plan
and 45,000 peacekeepers to en
force it.
Col. Claude Vicaire, comman
der of French police in Kosovo,
said a witness “in a European
country” had given information
that led investigators to a grave
containing 28 bodies.
Some of the victims had been
taken away during an April 14 Serb
paramilitary raid, Vicaire said.
Chechnya desperate for
humanitarian relief
Chechens flee Russian air strikes
MAKHACHKALA, Russia (AP)
— Regions around the restive
Russian republic of Chechnya
faced a humanitarian crisis yes
terday as tens of thousands of
frightened Chechens fled a sixth
day of Russian airstrikes.
Prime Minister Vladimir Putin
said Russia was not planning an
other ground war after the one
that devastated Chechnya in 1994-
96. He cautioned that “other pos
sible steps would be considered”
if the airstrikes failed to wipe out
rebel operations.
Chechnya-based Islamic rebels
have twice invaded neighboring
Dagestan in recent weeks, and are
blamed for a series of apartment ex
plosions in Russian that killed some
300 people this month.
Russia said its air campaign is
aimed at the rebels, not at Chech
nya’s government or people.
Chechen officials said eight peo
ple were killed when a schoolhouse
was bombed yesterday in the village
of Staraya Sunzha on the outskirts of
Grozny, the Chechen capital, the
ITAR-Tass news agency reported.
The military said yesterday’s
raids also hit a television station, oil
derricks and industrial facilities.
The raids have terrified ordinary
Chechens. About 60,000 have fled to
the neighboring republic of In
gushetia, said Ingush President Rus
lan Aushev.
From 8,000 to 12,000 more have
headed for the neighboring regions
of Dagestan, North Ossetia and
Stavropol, the Federal Migration Ser
vice reported, according to the ITAR-
Tass news agency. The exodus
threatens to overwhelm the al-
ready-meager facilities in the im
poverished Caucasus region
“We urgently need humanitarian
aid — temporary housing, warm
clothes and blankets — because we
are on the doorstep of winter,”
Aushev said.
Russian Emergency Situations
Minister Sergei Shoigu flew to In
gushetia yesterday and ordered
refugee camps be set up within 24
hours.
'The [Russian] gov
ernment will not al
low a catastrophe/'
— Sergei Shoigu
Russian Emergency
Situations Minister
Shoigu also ordered that the De
fense Ministry be informed of the
camps’ locations to keep them “safe
against Russian anti-guerrilla air
raids,” Interfax reported. It was not
clear if this meant Russia was con
sidering expanding the airstrikes to
regions outside Chechnya.
The minister called the situa
tion serious, but said talk of a
refugee disaster was premature.
“The government will not al
low a catastrophe,” Shoigu said,
according to Interfax. He added
that 40 tons of aid, including
tents, food and blankets, would
be flown to Ingushetia soon.
There is only one refugee camp
set up, accommodating 850 peo
ple, Interfax reported. Thousands
of people who fled in cars were
backed up several miles yesterday
at the Ingushetia border.
