SERB CARGO HELICOPTERS SPOTTED OVER ORASJE, NORTH BOSNIA

TOLISA, Feb 24 (Hina) - Bosnian Serbs yesterday frequently violated the ceasefire agreement by opening small arms and mortar fire at Croat Defence Council (HVO) positions on the Orasje front of northern Bosnia-Herzegovina, HVO officials reported today. Serb cargo helicopters were spotted several times flying over the Orasje area and the traffic of Serb military vehicles intensified along the Serb-held corridor. Last night a convoy of vehicles, including tank trucks, was seen travelling from the direction of Brcko, the HVO said. Observing the ceasefire, HVO forces around Orasje refrained from responding to Serb armed provocations and defence lines remained unaltered, the HVO said. (Hina) rv vm 241058 MET feb 95
