Bosnian mosque attack raises new fears

Bosnian mosque attack raises new fears
Tuesday 23 March 2004

A mosque was attacked and slightly damaged by explosives in Bosnia on Monday, raising fears that ethnic violence in Kosovo could reignite hostilities between Serbs and Muslims.

"Two explosive devices were thrown at the mosque, breaking its windows and damaging the facade," Mufti Edhem Camdzic said after the attack in the northern Serb-run town of Gradiska.

Bosnian Serb police confirmed the attack but refused to elaborate, pending further investigations. The attack came exactly 11 years after the mosque was flattened by Bosnian Serb forces in the republic's 1992-1995 war.
