Heavy artillery of Albanian terrorists

Of the four seriously wounded Serbs, two were transferred to Belgrade, although they are out of danger, Tanjug learned in the Kosovska Mitrovica hospital.

Two more Serbs are recovering in the intensive care unit of the Kosovska Mitrovica hospital, while a young man from Kosovska Mitrovica and a female college student from Cacak, who was visiting relatives in Kosovo and Metohija, have been admitted to the orthopedics department of this hospital.

The reminder of the wounded, were released home after receiving medical aid during the night.

"The ethnic Albanian terrorists crossed the Ibar river on foot and started shelling us over the heads of the French soldiers who blocked the bridge," Ivica Markovic said this morning from his bed in intensive care. Markovic still has several shrapnels in his body.

The bridge over the Ibar river divides Kosovska Mitrovica into the southern and northern parts which are separately inhabited by the Serbs and ethnic Albanians.

The ethnic Albanians fired 7-8 mortars on the Serbs in the northern parts of the city, after which the French peacekeepers fired shots in the air to warn the terrorists to withdraw over the Ibar.

Tanjug's correspondent registered wounded casualties among the French troops, but the KFOR command has so far failed to release any information about this incident.

At the time of the ethnic Albanian attack in the northern part of Kosovska Mitrovica, this part of the city was without electricity and telephones, which were reconnected Friday morning.

The situation in Kosovska Mitrovica is calm this morning, although the atmosphere is tense.
