Description

The first Muslim refugees to be forcibly driven from their homes after the Serb seizure of Srebrenica enclave have arrived in Bosnian Government territory. But all males over 16 are being sent to Serb held territory to be screened for war crimes. UN spokesman Lieutenant-Colonel Gary Coward says it wasn’t easy for the UN soldiers to stand back and watch.
