BOSNIAN FACTIONS EXCHANGE PRISONERS
Bosnia's formerly warring Serb and
Muslim armies have each traded more
than 100 prisoners of war in a
Christmas Eve exchange.
The swap took place on a bridge between
separatist Serb and Bosnian army
government lines near Gracanica in the
northeast of the country. See also 164

131 Muslims, mostly captured during the
fall of Srebrenica.
The swap was overseen by Swedish troops
of the NATO Implementation Force.
