The United Nations warned it is too dangerous to keep a peacekeeping mission in Bosnia Herzegovina after the European Community withdrew its monitors in protest of Serbian aggression. The UN chief cautioned that the Croatia mission is at risk amid ethnic fighting, with clashes reported near Derventa and Doboj.
