    No Mass Graves In Kosovo 
     

    Investigations by international medical and specialised 
    teams clearly show that no mass executions have been 
    conducted in Kosovo, the Rome daily L'Unita 
    quoted Thursday a spokesman for the International Criminal 
    Tribunal in The Hague as saying. 

    The paper said that the investigations to date, which it said 
     had been thorough, by medical teams from 15 countries 
    including the United States, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, 
    Ireland, France, Germany, Iceland, Luxembourg, Spain, 
    Switzerland and Great Britain, had only led to the discovery of 
    187 bodies in different locations. 

    The paper said that reports on mass graves in the Yugoslav republic of Serbia's southern province, launched by the international community during NATO's March 24-June 10 aggression on Yugoslavia, were, consequently, totally untrue. 

    In most of the places claimed to be the sites of mass execution like 
    those at Trepca, Djakovica and Izbica, not a single body has been 
    found, the paper said. 

    The international teams' investigations have shown that NATO's claim that it must bomb Yugoslavia to stop genocide in Kosovo 
    was nothing but a pretext to do so because there was no genocide in the province in the first place, the daily said.
