Watch out Skopje, you may be next in line for humanitarian bombing. _________________________________ Four policemen die during shootout in Macedonia Associated Press SKOPJE, Macedonia (January 12, 2000 9:37 a.m. EST http://www.nandotimes.com) - Four police officers were killed in a shootout in an ethnic Albanian village in Macedonia, police said Wednesday. Coming in the wake of bloodshed in neighboring Kosovo, the incident is likely to fuel ethnic tensions. The Macedonian policemen were shot sometime overnight in Aracinovo, a few miles east of the Macedonian capital, Skopje. The victims were reportedly looking for stolen cars. An unidentified assailant opened fire from a passing car and gunned them down, killing three instantly, police said. The fourth policeman died of injuries later. Police blocked Aracinovo and surrounding villages today to search for the assailants. Aracinovo is believed to be the center of an Albanian-run smuggling network between Kosovo and Macedonia that has flourished since the end of the NATO bombing of Yugoslavia last spring. Tensions in Kosovo have been high since Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic's 18-month crackdown on ethnic Albanians. After NATO bombing forced the Serb troops to withdraw, ethnic Albanians began attacking Serbs out of revenge. The violence also has boosted tensions in Macedonia, where almost one-quarter of the 2 million residents are ethnic Albanians. Speaking in Pristina, Kosovo's capital, U.N. spokeswoman Susan Manuel said Macedonian authorities had closed down a Kosovo-Macedonia border crossing near the Macedonian city of Tetovo, an ethnic Albanian stronghold. She said it was unclear whether the move was linked to the shootings. ______________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED] ______________________________________________________________________ Applying to college this year?
