Kursumlija, April 2nd 1999 (Tanjug) - One civilian has been killed, and several civil buildings have been damaged in last night's NATO Air Force criminal attack on Kursumlija.

Four missiles of great destroying power have fallen in the vicinity of town. One hit Vucina Stevanovic's house on the Samokovo hill. The house has been destroyed and Stevanovic was killed instantly. His brother Veroljub is heavily injured.

The second missile fell near a Middle Age monastery of the Holy Mother of Christ, at the Kosanica-Toplica river mouth. Two missiles have fallen at the entrance to the nearby village of Pepeljevac and damaged Kursumlija-Prokuplje railway.

Strong detonations have damaged dozens of houses, and the consequences of bombardment are also present in the town itself. Windows on the Fashion factory "July 7th" and many other buildings have been broken.

In the vicinity of the attacked area there are no military objects, which clearly points to the fact that civilian buildings were the targets.

The region of Uzice was attacked last night by NATO Air Force, confirmed Tanjug in the Uzice Information Center. Targets of the criminal NATO Air Force were exclusively civil, but there are still no official reports on the material damage and eventual casualties. Last night around 10.30 p.m. a missile hit the area of the village of Sirogojno on Mt. Zlatibor and fifteen minutes later there were strong explosions in the area of Ivanjica.
