Pristina, April 21 (Tanjug) - The toll of the NATO attack on a refugee housing block in the vicinity of Djakovica Tuesday night is at least 10 killed and 16 injured, Tanjug has learnt from police sources in Pristina.

The housing block on the outskirts of Djakovica was turned into a shelter for refugees from the Republic of Serb Krajina in 1995.

Rescue teams at the site of tragedy are clearing the rubble to save possible survivors and recover the bodies of the victims.

There are no military-related facilities in the vicinity of the refugee shelter that has been razed to the ground by eight missiles.

The shelter for refugees expelled in 1995 by the Croatian authorities was registered several times by all international organizations as well as by OSCE verifiers in Kosovo and Metohija.
