Macedonia Sends More Troops to Northern Border

Macedonia sent more tanks, armored vehicles and troops to its northern border on Monday in preparation for an expected final assault on ethnic Albanian extremists, said Albanian news agency ATA.

Many vehicles carrying security men and weaponry are seen on their way from Macedonian capital Skopje to the northwestern town of Tetovo.

The security forces will soon stage "a final operation to destroy the terrorists," government spokesman Antonion Milosovski said. Macedonian officials also said the next two days will be crucial to wipe out the terrorists.

They said security forces have crashed a number of rebel strongholds on the outskirts of Tetovo for the past few days. The rebels suffered great casualties in their weakened offensive. They started to withdraw from their positions, but some are still fighting back from underground tunnels.
