                        Chinese officials in Belgrade have uncovered an
unexploded missile in the ruins of their embassy compound decimated by
NATO bombing, official media reported Thursday.

                        Ambassador Pan Zhanlin and embassy staff found
the missile while clearing debris from the five-story building which was
struck by NATO missiles on May 7, the Xinhua news agency said in a
Belgrade-datelined story.

                        Previous reports had indicated three missiles
struck the mission, but diplomats now claim five missiles hit the
embassy from different angles, with four of them exploding, the report
said.

                        The attack, which NATO says was accidental,
killed three Chinese and injured 20, spawning violent anti-U.S.protests
across China. ( (c) 1999 Agence France Presse)
