Violence and Displacement in Kosovo.
Hundreds of thousands of Kosovar Albanian must have fled their homes. It's the largest refugee movement in Europe since World War II. If the refugees not remain in Yugoslavia, they may reach the border to Macedonia, Albania, or Montenegro, the poorest countries in Europe. The refugee camps are more than overcrowded. Emergency response programs to aid the refugees are urgently needed.
