The evacuees, who are under the protection of the Kosovo Force (KFOR)
or are accommodated in provisional shelters throughout Kosovo, need
food, clothing, medicines and blankets, Nowicki said in a statement on
Sunday evening.
The Belgrade-based Co-ordinating Centre for Kosovo said last night
that 3,064 people had left their homes in the recent bloody clashes in
Kosovo. Most of them are staying with their relatives and friends in
Kosovo and Kosovska Mitrovica districts. Around one thousand people
sought shelter in KFOR bases.
Most of the evacuees are from Kosovo Polje, Pristina, Lipljan, Obilic,
Slivovo, Kisnica and Rabovac.
