GNJILANE - A fierce mortar attack was carried out Saturday about 10.30 p.m. on the Cernica village in the Gnjilane area, Serbia's Kosovo-Metohija province, inhabited by about 110 Serb families.

Six shells were fired, of which two did not explode. There were no casualties, but many houses were damaged, amateur radio operators in Gnjilane report.

A powerful explosion in the center of Kamenica destroyed a building, but there were no casualties. In another incident in the same village, a Serb woman Mileva Andjelkovic was injured in a bomb blast.

The houses of Serbs Velibor Aleksic and Jovan Mihajlovic were burned down in the Sipasnica village. Five Serb homes in the town of Gnjilane itself were looted and eight Serb families in the Popovica village were given four days to leave.

Mortar attacks were also registered in the Gracanica monastery and village area.

A bomb was thrown at the house of Dragan Djordjevic in Kisnica village Saturday near midnight. Djordjevic and Ljiljana Vukovic, who was also in the house, were injured and taken to a Kosovo Polje hospital.
