planes fired on a group of returning ethnic Albanian refugees on
Wednesday, killing 75 and gravely wounding more than 20, said police
sources in Pristina, Yugoslav republic of Serbia's Kosovo-Metohija
province. Several groups of ethnic Albanians were returning by car
from the Vrbnica and Cafa Prusit border crossings to Albania after
being assured of safety by the government, when they were attacked
from NATO planes on the Djakovica-Prizren road between 1 and 3 p.m.
The planes swooped down in three waves on the refugees, mostly women
and children returning home to two villages in the Djakovica area
and one in the Prizren area.  Cafa
Prusit border crossing is southwest of Djakovica and Vrbnica is
southwest of Prizren. According to survivors, the fiercest attack
was at 3 p.m. at Bistrazin, 10 km from Djakovica in the direction
of Prizren, where the planes fired missiles and dropped bombs on
the people. This is where the largest number of civilians died,
according to unofficial information.
