UNHCR halts convoys over Bosnian food aid seizure in Banja Luka
UNHCR suspends all envoys to the Bosnian Serb stronghold of Banja Luka in protest after Bosnian Serb police raided a U.N. warehouse and seized about one ton of family food parcels. Spokeswoman Sylvana Foa said no convoys would pass through until the dispute is resolved. The reports also note a WWII B-29 wreck found in Russia and hunger-strike protests by African and Asian detainees seeking refugee status.
