No proof Kosovo children were drowned by Serb attackers: UN

PRISTINA -- Sunday – Investigators in Kosovo have not been able to confirm the allegation that Serb attackers drowned three children in a river, thus sparking the latest inter-ethnic violence in the province, a UN official said Saturday.

Wide local publicity for the story that the ethnic Albanian children had drowned when pursuers from the rival Serb community pushed them into a river triggered riots and arson that led to 28 deaths and more than 600 wounded in the UN-administered territory in Serbia.
