From Times Staff and Wire Reports

Houses occupied by foreigners were attacked by arsonists in four different parts of Germany, and 14 Turks were hospitalized suffering from smoke inhalation, police said. There were no serious injuries in the attacks, which have become virtually a nightly occurrence since the firebomb murder of five Turkish women and children in Solingen on May 29. There was also more retaliation from the Turkish community. Police said that about 30 Turkish youths wrecked a pub they believed was frequented by neo-Nazis in Schwanede, near Bremen.
