Spokesperson for the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), YETTA SORENSEN

2: Spokesperson for the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), YETTA SORENSEN. She's based in Zagreb, Croatia. Terry speaks with her from Croatia about the organizations relief efforts in the former Yugoslavia. Their work has been extremely dangerous there. In May one of their relief convoys was attacked and a ICRC delegate was killed and the organization pulled out of the area until mid-July. Last December, in response to the "ethnic cleansing" in Bosnia-Herzegovina, the ICRC issued an unprecedented public statement condemning the atrocities there.
