Bosnia Convoy Finally Reaches Town; 2nd One Is Delayed

SARAJEVO, Bosnia-Herzegovina —  Serbian officers blocked a food convoy to Srebrenica on Thursday, but a U.N. spokesman said the relief trucks would reach the besieged eastern city today.

Another U.N. relief convoy completed its delivery to the government-held town of Gorazde 30 miles southeast of Sarajevo and was reported on its way back. It was delayed Wednesday when an armored ambulance hit a mine.

The convoy to Gorazde was only the third since it was besieged by Serb fighters in the spring. Srebrenica has had no relief at all during the war.

Meanwhile, leaders of Croatian and Serbian forces met at Sarajevo airport with Gen. Philippe Morillon, head of U.N. units in Bosnia.

Serb military sources said they would propose a truce with Croatian forces in northern Bosnia and pullout of all Croat troops there.

Gen. Ratko Mladic, the commander of the Bosnia Serb forces, was quoted by the Belgrade-based Tanjug news agency as saying his Croatian counterpart, Gen. Janko Bobetko, refused to sign a peace agreement immediately but may soon accept the offer.

Such a pact would be another blow to the Muslim-led regime of Bosnia-Herzegovina, which has already accused its Croat allies of abandoning strategic cities in the former Yugoslav republic and cutting off military supplies to others.
