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.
