An eight-year-old Albanian boy was killed in attacks on Lismire. The village is surrounded by Serb snipers, the KIC said, emphasising women and children had not been evacuated and a mass- scale massacre is feared. Women and children were evacuated from the Hade village, while men remained to defend their houses. No information is available on possible victims. Kosovo sources believe Serbian forces will head toward Veliki Beleqevac, a village which is the site of Pristina's coalmine supplying Kosovo power plants. The village and coalmine have been under control of the Kosovo Liberation Army since last week. Last evening Serb forces shelled a coalmine building and wounded one man, Albanian forces reported today. According to unconfirmed reports, this morning the Yugoslav army blocked all access to Veliki Belaqevac and is getting ready for an attack. (hina) ha 291333 MET jun 98
