ZAGREB (Reuter) - A German relief plane was hit by anti-aircraft fire over northern Croatia yesterday and one crew member was injured, a spokesman for the UN High Commissioner for Refugees said. The plane, which was heading to Sarajevo, was hit south-west of Karlovac and turned back to Zagreb. UN officials were meeting to decide whether to suspend the airlift to Sarajevo. The spokesman also said Serbian irregulars were driving thousands of Muslims out of eastern Bosnia by bombarding them from their homes in a new form of 'ethnic cleansing'.
