U.N. FOOD CONVOY SETS OUT FOR BIHAC

ZAGREB, Feb 15 (Hina) - A joint UNHCR and UNPROFOR relief convoy left Zagreb this morning with 96 tons of food for the Bihac pocket of northwestern Bosnia, UNHCR spokeswoman Alemka Lisinski said. The 20-truck convoy reached a UN check point at Moscenica and would carry on via Velika Kladusa to its final destination in Cazin. Lisinski said rebel Croatian Serb authorities in Knin granted clearance for the convoy to pass through Serb-held territory. There are about 150 thousand people dependent on humanitarain aid supplies in the Bihac enclave which is controlled by the Bosnian government army and the Croat Defence Council (HVO). Aid convoys are frequently obstructed by Bosnian and Croatia Serb forces besieging the enclave. (hina) jn vm 151306 MET feb 95
