UN MISSION RECALLS OFFICERS FROM SERB-CONTROLLED SECTIONS OF KOSOVO

BELGRADE, April 13 /from RIA Novosti's Sergei Ryabikin/ - The United
Nations Interim Administration in Kosovo (UNMIK) has by now recalled
most of its staffers from the Serb-controlled sections of Kosovo. It
explained the step by the escalation of violence in that Yugoslav
province.

                Andrea Angeli, official spokesman for the UNMIK, said in
Pristina that all the Serbs working for the mission and twenty staffers
of other ethnicity had not showed up for work in four Kosovar cities
with a Serb population. It is recommended that foreign UNMIK staffers
stay out of these areas in the nighttime.

                In Kosovo's Serb-controlled areas, there has been
tension since last Monday, when clashes between Serbs and a
multinational police force took place in the northern Kosovar city of
Kosovska Mitrovica. The Serbs had taken to the streets to protest the
establishment of a police checkpoint in the Serb section of the city.
Twenty-six policemen and twelve demonstrators were injured in the
clashes. International peacekeepers have by now deployed their armored
vehicles to restore stability in Kosovo.
