UNPRECEDENTED SERB TERRORIST ATTACK ON SARAJEVO, UN SAYS

SARAJEVO, Nov 15 (Hina) - Sarajevo's major city road, which serves the Holiday Inn hotel, was shut down today because of sniping attacks on vehicles and pedestrians from Serb positions. Trams were brought to a standstill and police warned citizens to exercise increased caution. Serb forces stationed in the Grbavica neighbourhood yesterday fired two shoulder-launched missiles and a guided anti-tank rocket at the street, wounding one pedestrian, an UNPROFOR press conference heard today. The anti-tank missile exploded half-way between Holiday Inn and the Marshal Tito barracks. According to UN spokesman Tim Spicer, this is the first time the Serbs used this kind of projectile against a civilian target in what can only be described as a "terrorist" attack. Bosnian army yesterday opened mortar fire on Serb positions on Mt Igman outside the demilitarised zone, prompting an artillery response. Limited infantry clashes were also reported. The shooting did not abate until late in the evening. (hina) mm as sd 151423 MET nov 94
