[0:02] More US jets to the Balkans. The US revs

[0:05] up the air war against Yugoslavia. What

[0:08] life is like in America for the last

[0:11] refugees out of that region. Cleaning up

[0:13] the tornado damage in the Midwest. And

[0:16] the revolution that will get you out of

[0:19] the grocery store.

[0:22] This is the CBS Evening News

[0:26] with John Roberts.

[0:29] Good evening. Day 18 of the crisis over

[0:32] Kosovo has NATO asking for

[0:34] reinforcements with no sign that it is

[0:36] even close to achieving its goals in

[0:38] Yugoslavia. The US has ordered up 82

[0:41] more warplanes to join the conflict,

[0:43] mostly radar jamming and support

[0:45] aircraft. Slob and Mallosvich upped his

[0:48] defiant rhetoric on this orthodox

[0:50] Easter, calling on Serbs to work harder

[0:52] to resist NATO. Bad weather turned back

[1:12] unaccounted for. Today, US spy

[1:15] satellites may have found some of them

[1:17] riding it out, trying to survive inside

[1:20] Kosovo. Mark Phillips has the latest.

[1:24] About 1,500 Kosovo refugees crossed over

[1:27] into Albania this morning. The first to

[1:30] do so since Yugoslavia closed the border

[1:32] 4 days ago. They were all from the same

[1:35] village and said they had tried to stay,

[1:37] but that they were forced from their

[1:39] homes by Serb police yesterday,

[1:41] indicating that ethnic cleansing is

[1:43] still underway. Several thousand more

[1:45] from adjacent villages were reported
