Serbs In The Burbs

NPR's Tom Gjelten reports from Sarajevo on efforts to stop Bosnian Serbs from fleeing their homes in the Sarajevo suburbs. Under the Dayton peace agreement, those Serb suburbs come under the control of the Muslim-led Bosnia government. There are reports that some Serbs are loading everything they can into their cars and burning their houses after leaving. The top civilian adminstrator for NATO today met with three Bosnian Serb leaders to explore ways to stop the exodus.
