[0:01] on the
[0:03] Serb forces are on the brink of
[0:04] capturing Bee Hatch with no signs that
[0:06] Allied forces can stop them. And the
[0:09] great afterth Thanksgiving homeward rush
[0:11] is underway.
[0:14] This is the CBS Evening News.
[0:22] Dana King reporting. Good evening
[0:23] everyone. Secretary of Defense William
[0:25] Perry admits the war in Bosnia has
[0:27] turned and UN and NATO forces are
[0:30] powerless to stop the Serbs from closing
[0:32] in on Bhatch. The best the UN can offer
[0:34] now is a ceasefire proposal. As Alan
[0:37] Pizzy reports, the Bosnian government
[0:38] has accepted that proposal, hoping it
[0:41] can still negotiate, not surrender.
[0:46] >> It's the same as being in hell. A

[1:12] government has said yes. Now it's up to
[1:14] the Serbs.
[1:15] >> They have the whole day tomorrow to
[1:17] accept it. If they don't, then it's
[1:19] quite clear that they want to buy more
[1:21] time and that uh uh the UN and NATO
[1:25] should do air strikes.
[1:27] >> But the UN has more problems with the
[1:29] Serbs. As if be batch wasn't humiliation
[1:31] enough, today the Serbs shelled Canadian
[1:34] peacekeepers.
[1:35] >> So we consider it that it was a direct
[1:37] attack on a UN installation because it
[1:41] was so close to the compound.
