President Bush met Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon and urged swift Palestinian action after a Haifa bus bombing and a Jerusalem suicide attack killed 41 and wounded nearly 200. Hamas claimed responsibility while Israel blamed Yasir Arafat. Retired Gen. Anthony Zinni arrived to seek a ceasefire amid broader Arab backlash and U.S. pressure to sustain support for the war on terrorism.

Serbs Return Home as Bosnian War Fallout Eases
Thousands of Bosnian Serbs, including 62 year old Rade Kragulj, are returning to homes now in Muslim controlled territory. The UN reports a 65 percent rise in minority returns in the first nine months of 2001 to 56 683, with fewer violent incidents and new laws aiding squatters to leave. Kragulj and his wife Dusanka back from years of refugees, say their village Drevar remains tense but neighbors are friendly and they plan to stay.
