SARAJEVO, Dec 14 (Hina) - Self-styled Bosnian Serb authorities at
Pale agreed to clear three UN flights today and partially lift
the blockade of Sarajevo airport.
UN spokesman Jan-Dirk von Merveldt told a Sarajevo press
conference that three UN aircraft were expected to arrive with
UN personnel to relieve peace-keepers in Sarajevo and Moslem
enclaves in eastern Bosnia.
Von Merveldt said these flights had not yet been announced
because of the dense fog over Sarajevo. He added that clearance
was given after UNPROFOR commander for Bosnia Lt. Gen. Michael
Rose visited Pale yesterday.
However, there was no sign of restoring the humanitarian
airlift into the Bosnian capital.
Serb forces with anti-aircraft rockets positioned around the
airport posed a great threat to slow UN transport aircraft.
UNPROFOR today obtained permission to move 15 convoys
through Serb-manned check-points.
Von Merveldt said it was still uncertain whether these
convoys would be allowed unimpeded passage because of tighter
restrictions imposed by Serb authorities on the type of vehicles
and contents they could transport.
He was unable to specify these restrictions but said they
would certainly make the UN mission more difficult.
