PRISTINA, Aug 9 (Hina) - Serbian forces on Sunday intensified their
attacks on villages in the Decani municipality in the western part
of Kosovo, said the Kosovo Information Centre in Pristina.
The Albanian source reports that Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA)
troops are offering strong resistance to Serbian forces, who are
trying to take over villages under KLA control.
Seven villages are being attacked and it is feared civilians are
among the casualties, because Serbian forces fired at a group of
Albanians who tried to flee their homes.
The Centre said Serbian forces in Decani itself, where hundreds of
Albanians are being kept hostage, killed four people.
It said Serbian attacks were continuing in villages in the
Djakovica municipality close to the border of Albania, right up to
the village of Junik.
Albanian sources report that on the weekend Serbian forces attacked
the villages of Dujaka, Plancor and Herece in the Djakovica
municipality, which are along the Djakovica-Decani road.
Clashes are continuing in the Drenica region. In the village of
Likoce, 46 Albanian homes were set on fire while parts of the
village of Lausa have been levelled to the ground.
