'Don't take photographs, bring bombs.'
Article Abstract:
Many Albanians in Kosovo, Yugoslavia, are being forced to flee their homes as Serb troops advance. Aid agencies have sent food and other supplies to a warehouse in Glogovac, where up to 20,000 newly displaced people are seeking shelter, but conditions there remain extremely primitive. Serb forces are active on the main road towards Srbica and in the north, around Polance. The situation in Srbica has become very tense, with policemen ordering journalists to leave.

Delays cause misery on the border
Article Abstract:
Very large numbers of ethnic Albanians are seeking to cross the border from Kosovo, Yugoslavia, into Albania itself. The refugees, mainly women and children, are exhausted from their long journey, and are suffering from lack of proper food and shelter. Aid agencies seem to have been unprepared for such a large influx, even though many observers pointed out that Albania would be a key destination for Kosovars forced by the Serbs to leave their homes.
