World IN BRIEF : BOSNIA : Tanks Hunted Amid Fears of Offensive
From Times Staff and Wire Reports
The Bosnian government warned of a possible new Serb offensive as U.N. peacekeepers scrambled to find Bosnian Serb tanks believed to be inside the protected zone around Sarajevo. U.N. officials conceded that as many as four tanks may be in the hills around Sarajevo in violation of a NATO ultimatum in February banning heavy weapons from within 12.4 miles of the city. One of the tanks disappeared while being escorted by U.N. peacekeepers. Up to three others were believed to have remained within the exclusion zone.
