The Yugoslav army rejected the latest European Community peace plan and vowed to use “all available means” to crush a blockade of its barracks by rebel forces in Croatia. Defense Minister Veljko Kadijevic said the army will call up more reservists immediately to strengthen a siege of towns and ports throughout Croatia. Some of the worst fighting raged around Dubrovnik, where army forces pushed to within three miles of the medieval walled city after shelling coastal villages.
