Sarajevo suffers barrage as truce collapses
SARAJEVO, Bosnia-Herzegovina (AP) —
A once-promising cease-fire virtually collapsed
Sunday in the heaviest artillery bombardment
of Sarajevo since the truce went into effect 10
days ago.
Bosnian authorities also accused Serb forces
- of-deploying Scud-missfles-in-positions that
threaten two northern towns. A Serb military
spokesman denied the allegation.
U.N. peacekeeping troops from Britain
moved Sunday to protect U.N. relief ware
houses i n Travn ik, a to wn 4 5 m i les north west of
Sarajevo that is clogged with refugees fleeing
approaching Serb forces.
NATO warships began slopping and search
ing vessels entering Yugoslav territorial waters
in line with a U.N. decision Friday to toughen
economic sanctions against Yugoslavia, which
now consists of Serbia and Montenegro.

Bosnians accuse Serbs of positioning Scuds
with the Western European Union defense alli
ance, NATO officials said in Naples, Italy.
The NATO ships include five destroyers
4rofn Italy, Germany, Greece; Turkey tmd-Brit
ain, plus a Dutch and an American frigate, the
USS Halyburton.
The NATO and European forces have been
monitoring the embargo in the Adriatic since
July, but they have not had the authority to stop
and board ships. Most materials reaching Yu
goslavia have come overland or along the
Danube River.
The embargo was imposed in May to punish
Serbia for fomenting the Bosnian war, which
erupted after the republic’s majority Muslims
and Croats voted in February for independence
from Yugoslavia. More than 14,000 people
have been killed in the fighting.

^Belgrade, the Yugoslav federal and Serbian
capital, the head of the Serbian Orthodox Church
said Sunday that Serbia, too, might become
engulfed in war.
Patriarch Pavle told the biweekly Duga he
feared Serbia might be bombed or civil war
m ight break out in regions with large Albanian,
Hungarian or Muslim populations.
A U.N.-brokered cease-fire that went into
effect in Bosnia on Nov. 12 had been violated
in some areas of the republic but had brought
the capital, Sarajevo, one of its quietest inter
ludes in an 8-month-old siege by Serb militias.
On Sunday, however, heavy artillery shell
ing struck numerous areas of the capital. U.N.
peacekeepers said eight rounds landed near the
Bosnian presidency building. Other details were
not immediately available.
Bosnia’s Muslim president, Alija
Izclbcgovic, appealed to the United Nations to
hah the alleged Serb miss i le deployments-. He
accused the Serbs of using continuing peace
talks as a cover for reorganizing their forces.
A senior Bosnian army officer, who spoke
on condition of anonym ity, claimed as many as
12 Scud surface-to-surface missiIcs were moved
out of the Serb-controlled northwestern city of
Banja Luka in a convoy on Wednesday.
He said the missiles had been driven east
ward and installed in the towns of Modrica and
Odzak.
Maj. Milan Pantovic, an information officer
reached by telephone at the Bosnian Serb air
force command in Banja Luka, denied the
existence of Scud missiles in Bosnia.
lomadoes tear through South, leave 16 dead
By The Associated Press
Tornadoes ripped through parts of
the South Saturday night, killing 16
people, leveling houses and uproot
ing trees and utility poles.
“It’s unbelievable. We’re lucky
we didn’t lose more lives than we
did,” said W.L. Whittington, mayor
of Brandon, Miss. Ten people were
killed in and around the town.
Tornadoes killed 15 people and
injured at least 150 in Mississippi late
Saturday and one person was killed
early Sunday in Tennessee. Thunder
slormsand tornadoes also caused dam
age in Alabama and Georgia. Torna
does were reported Saturday in Texas
and Louisiana.
In Brandon, 15 miles cast of Jack
son, a tornado smashed through a
mobile home park and then skipped
across town to an upscale neighbor
hood, where it killed three Cub Scout
buddies enjoying a weekend sleep
over and the father of one of the boys.
Rescue workers and residents
searched through the rubble after day
light.
At the mobile home park, rescue
workers used doors from smashed
houses as makeshift stretchers, said
Charlie Wilkinson, civil defense di
rector for Rankin County.
At least six people were killed
there, Whittington said.
The tornado roared "through Bran
donaboutmidnight. It leveled houses,
uprooted trees and downed hundreds
of power and telephone poles. At least
86 of the injuries were in Brandon,
Wilkinson said.
“It just whishcd through here like
slicing hot butter,” Constable Martin
Mann said of the Rankin County town.
“We’ve got two-story homes not big
ger than a bag of firewood. They’re
wiped out.”
“It was like a state fair — there
were people all over the place,” said
James L. Callahan, sheriff of nearby
Leake County, where one person was
killed.
