The United Nations refugee agency, the UNHCR, says it has been evacuating vulnerable Serb residents from Kosovo because of the growing threat to their safety. The evacuations have gone ahead despite Nato's strong opposition A UNHCR spokesman, Dennis Macnamara, said the agency had moved out several hundred Serbs. "We don't choose to do that. But do we allow them to remain and be attacked, in some cases killed?" he asked. "Some people we haven't evacuated and who wanted it have lost their lives in the last weeks." Mr Macnamara warned that the UNHCR might soon undertake evacuations on a wider scale, because of growing threats from Kosovo Albanian gunmen. The agency believes that only 50,000 Serbs remain in Kosovo - a quarter of the pre-war population. news.bbc.co.uk
