explosive new round of ethnic violence
threatened to undermine U.N. Peacekeeping
operations in both Bosnia and neighboring
Croatia. Shelling by federal artillery positions
began late Monday. A federal army
commander said the shelling was revenge for
Croatian militia attacks to the north and
would continue until they ceased. News media

wounded in Bosnia Tuesday.
