The attack happened at about 6 p.m. on the main highway linking Skopje, the capital, to Tetovo, Macedonia's second-largest city. Interior Minister Ljube Boskovski, accompanied by journalists with state-run television, was trying to visit returning refugees when the attack took place. Gunfire rang out from both sides of the highway as the car was near the village of Grupcin. The ambush happened as key government and ethnic Albanian leaders were engaged in peace talks in the southwestern city of Ohrid. In a statement, Boskovksi blamed the attack on ethnic Albanian rebels fighting an insurgency, and he called on ``the police and the army to establish control over the entire Macedonian territory.'' ``Not a single smart man can trust terrorists any longer,'' the statement said. ``We have to prepare and be ready to regain lost territory.''
