Turkey — About 55 dependents of U.S. diplomats who were stranded for several days in Baghdad after fleeing Kuwait, left the Iraqi capital yesterday for Turkey, the U.S. Embassy here said. Embassy spokesperson Carole Lee Heileman said the Americans left Baghdad early morning in a car. Heleman said the group was expected to arrive at Turkey's Harab border post sometime in the afternoon or evening. pp, 3a, 2b, 3b See related stories Turkey sometime today, she said.

"An additional 54 or 55 personnel, mostly men, who had been stationed in Iraq and we have not secured their release," Heileman said. Earlier this week, Iraq gave a Friday deadline for nations to close their embassies in Kuwait, claiming its oil rich neighbor as part of Iraqi territory. Iraq annexed Kuwait six days after its Aug. 2 invasion of the emirate. But the United States, most European nations and many other countries have refused to close their embassies in Kuwait City, instead reducing personnel there to a minimum. The U.S. Embassy sent about 100 diplomats and their dependents to Baghdad, where they were stranded when Iraqi President Saddam Hussein reversed an earlier promise and refused to let them leave. But Saturday, Iraq's U.S. ambassador said in Washington that the wives and children of the American president had been kidnapped. "The dependents are going to be released," said Mohamed al-Masahat, summoned to the State Department. "Some of them will be leaving soon." However, he said the diplomats would be treated "just like anybody else," meaning they will be detained. He said that although Iraq and the United States "are on the brink of a catastrophe," Baghdad was not going to use force against the U.S. Embassy in Kuwait.
