The refugee situation in Kosovo is continuing to worsen with the Red Cross estimating that 70,000 people in the area have now fled their homes. On the hillsides near Pornovc, families are living in the open air, while in a nearby dilapidated schoolhouse others are sleeping 30 to a room. Families fear the lack of proper hygiene is a health threat, particularly to their children. Meanwhile EU observers investigating press reports of mass graves in Kosovo denied their existence on Wednesday, although they said 10 named graves had been found at the site in Orahovac where Serbian forces routed fighters of the Kososvo Liberation Army last month. Fighting for control of the southwestern town of Orahovac, which has a predominantly ethnic Albanian population, left dozens of dead among the Albanians, according to both Serb and Albanian sources.
