News in Brief * Intense gunfire kills three Israeli soldiers JERUSALEM (AP) — Three Israeli soldiers were killed Wednesday in clashes with Palestinians in the West Bank, the military said, af ter wounded Israeli soldiers were pinned dqwn by intense Palestin ian gunfire that prevented their evacuation. They were the first Israeli soldiers to die in combat since Oct. 1. Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak called his Cabinet into special session and said Israel would not tolerate what he called “grave es calation.” A statement from his office said Barak told the Cabinet his army “will act forcefully but without being dragged into adventurism.” Yugoslavia added to U.N. roster UNITED NATIONS (AP) — Yu goslavia’s new democratic govern ment joined the United Nations on Wednesday, opening a new chapter in Belgrade’s relations with the in ternational community after eight years of U.N. ostracism under former strongman Slobodan Milosevic. By acclamation and with a loud round of applause, the 189-member General Assembly overwhelmingly approved Yugoslavia’s application for U.N. membership and hailed Belgrade’s democratic transition and the newly elected president, Vo- jislav Kostunica. “This indeed is a historic day for the United Nations, and for the Balkans — for all of Europe, indeed for all of the world,” said U.S. Am bassador Richard Holbrooke. “We welcome Yugoslavia as the United Nations’ newest member.” After General Assembly Presi dent Harri Holkeri proclaimed the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia ad mitted, the Yugoslav delegation was led to its seats in the General Assem bly hall where a “Yugoslavia” name plate was placed in front of them. “With legitimate pride, the Yu goslav people are going to take their rightful place in the concert of na tions,” French Ambassador Jean- David Levitte told the assembly, speaking on behalf of the European Union. “Also this evening, an important step will be taken toward reconcil iation, stability and peace in a re gion that has been marked by so many trials.” Under Milosevic, Yugoslavia had refused to comply with the General Assembly’s 1992 demand that it ap ply for U.N. admission as a new country following the breakup of the Yugoslav socialist republic in the early 1990s.
