He added that he had gone to the scene of the killing and that he had seen corpses of 20 victims, most of whom were elderly people. They had been shot at close range. Walker said members of the OSCE Verification Mission and the Kosovo Diplomatic Observing Mission had counted 45 dead bodies including corpses of three women and one child. U.S. diplomat said he could not describe how his colleagues and he had been shocked to see the grisly scene. He said he held it was a crime against humanity and accused the Serbian government security forces of responsibility. A few days ago the Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA) released eight Yugoslav soldiers and we expected appropriate steps from the Yugoslav side to help build trust. Instead, at least 45 innocent civilians were killed, Walker said. The United States proposed an urgent meeting of the NATO council on Sunday to discuss necessary measures after the latest developments in the conflict-ridden province of Kosovo. The Brussels meeting will revolve around possible plans of the NATO activities in the light of the fact that the order that NATO can act, issued on October 27, 1998, is still in force, a respresentative of the State Department spokesman's office told Hina on Saturday evening. U.S. President Clinton and other world leaders condemned the massacre . (hina) ms
