The Bosnian Serb government says it has accepted the resignations of its interior minister and at least one other top official over riots that broke out over the rebuilding of a mosque in Banja Luka. The government says it will replace Bosnian Serb Interior Minister Perica Bundalo and Intelligence Service Director Dobrislav Planojevic. Last week, several thousand Bosnian Serb nationalists clashed with several hundred Muslims over the rebuilding of the mosque, which Serb forces destroyed in 1993 during the Bosnian conflict. The Serb nationalists trapped international dignitaries, Muslim officials and civilians inside the city’s Islamic center. The rioters burned cars and buses and looted nearby buildings. At least 30 people, including police officers, were injured. The top international mediator in Bosnia-Herzegovina, Wolfgang Petritsch, has criticized Bosnian Serb authorities for their handling of the situation.
