NATO FORCE FINDS SECOND MINE ON
KOSOVO BLAST ROAD
FoNet - July 16, 2003
Zubin Potok: Srdjan Mutavdzic, 30 years of age, from the village of Dren
near Zubin Potok, luckily escaped with his life today when his lorry hit an
anti-tank mine planted on a road, the Raska-Prizren Eparchy information service
has reported.
(Passage omitted)
For years Serbs have been using this road and according to Mutavdzic, it was
highly unlikely that the explosive device was left over from the war.
Kfor (Kosovo Force) today immediately went out to the scene of the disaster and
found a second anti-tank mine buried in the road, which once again confirms that
the mines were placed there in the course of the night.
