Aujourd'hui (30 aout 1995), juste apres 00h00 TU (02h00, heure locale), des aeronefs de l'OTAN ont mene des attaques sur des objectifs militaires serbes en Bosnie dans le cadre de l'operation Deny Flight.
NATO aircraft operating within the provisions of Operation
Deny Flight today (30 August 1995) just after 00:00 GMT
(02:00 local) commenced attacks on Bosnian Serb military
targets in Bosnia. The air operations were initiated
after the UN military commanders concluded, beyond any
reasonable doubt, that Monday's brutal mortar attack in
Sarajevo came from Bosnian Serb positions. The NATO
operation is ongoing and details will be provided as
soon as possible.
The operations were jointly decided by the Commander in
Chief, Allied Forces Southern Europe and the Force
Commander, UN Peace Forces under UN Security Council
Resolution 836 and in accordance with the North
Atlantic Council's decisions of 25 July and 1 August,
which were endorsed by the UN Secretary General.
Our objective is to reduce the threat to the Sarajevo Safe
Area and to deter further attacks there or on any other
Safe Area. We hope that this operation will also
demonstrate to the Bosnian Serbs the futility of further
military actions and convince all parties of the
determination of the Alliance to implement its decisions.
We call upon all parties to exercise restraint. No one
should seek military benefit from our action.
NATO remains strongly committed to the continued efforts
of the international community, including those of the
Contact Group, to bring peace to the former Yugoslavia
through the diplomatic process. It is my fervent hope
that our decisive response to Monday's mortar attack will
contribute to attaining a peaceful settlement.
