BOSNIAN SERBS BLOCK U.N. RELIEF CONVOYS

SARAJEVO, Oct 4 (Hina) - Bosnian Serbs yesterday denied 25 UN humanitarian convoys to pass through territory under their control, the UN in Sarajevo said today. The convoys were taking provisions to UN peace-keepers round Bosnia. Two UNHCR food convoys travelling from Belgrade to the eastern Moslem enclave of Gorazde were also stopped by Bosnian Serbs. UNHCR spokesman Kris Janowski told reporters that the Serbs agreed to clear passage for all humanitarian aid shipments provided they were allowed to inspect the cargo, which UNHCR accepted. UNPROFOR military spokesman Tim Spicer said that yesterday's problems with the passage of convoys were caused by poor communications between the Serb command and their troops on the ground.
