Macedonia empties border enclave

BLACE, Macedonia (AP) - Macedonian authorities early Wednesday emptied a
border enclave where tens of thousands of Kosovo refugees had been trapped
for days, taking some to NATO tent camps and shipping thousands of others
off to Albania. Aid workers expressed strong concern that the refugees had
not been told where they were going, and that aid organizations had not
been informed beforehand of plans for the mass transport. Meanwhile, the
fate of a miles-long queue of ethnic Albanian refugees who had been waiting
on the other side of Macedonia's frontier with Yugoslavia was not known,
and there were fears they had been turned back to Kosovo. See full story
