HC Deb 27 April 1999 vol 330 c103W
Ann Clwyd

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence what information he has obtained on the laying of anti-personnel landmines and anti-tank mines by the Yugoslav army in Kosovo. [81994]

Mr. George Robertson

There is evidence that both anti-tank mines and anti-personnel mines have been employed by the Yugoslav army in Kosovo since April of last year. While our information is incomplete, we believe that in central and south west Kosovo, where many of the minefields are laid, these are small scale. Along the Albanian and Macedonian borders with Kosovo, there is evidence of more conventional large scale minefields.
