President Boris Yeltsin ordered use of all means to restore order in Chechnya.

The Kremlin labels Dudayev’s government as criminal and aims to disarm illegal armed groups.

Food shortage looms in Bosnia
Bosnia faces a growing humanitarian crisis as Serb restrictions threaten aid access. U.N. stocks run low and the airlift to Sarajevo is suspended, while a convoy delivered 90 tons of food to Cazin near Bihac. About 200,000 people in Bihac depend on aid amid clashes and detentions of peacekeepers.
