The U.N. refugee agency accused Bosnian Serb authorities of using a U.N. aid agency list to pick out Muslim- and Croat-owned houses for destruction. Two weeks ago, 96 houses in hamlets

visits by the refugees, who were forcefully evicted during the war. “This list was then apparently used . . . as a demolition list rather than a visit list,” Janowski said. MORE TO READ
