(18 May 1995) Natural Sound
An uneasy calm in Sarajevo was punctured Thursday by a deadly mortar shell and a sniper's bullet.
One person was killed and several others injured in a mortar attack on a market site and a man was killed by a sniper as Bosnian government officials were erecting anti-sniper barricades.
Four people were injured Thursday, including two peacekeepers, despite assurances from both sides that the attacks would stop.
The accuracy of the sniper's bullet rang out on Sarajevo's streets Thursday morning, killing a civilian, as others ran for their lives.
The heavy shelling of the last two days has let up but Sarajevo residents were still under attack.
They had just begun to venture out from their homes for the first time in 48 hours, after the most vicious fighting there in two years.
A mortar landed in a market place, where people were trying to stock up on vital supplies used during the two day siege.
One person was killed and six other shoppers injured. The wounded were taken to Kosevo hospital for treatment.
NATO jets continued to fly low over the city, as a warning to the Serbian rebel forces.
But Serbian rockets and mortars continued to attack Bosnian government front line positions around the Jewish cemetery in a suburb of Sarajevo.
UN peacekeepers, caught in the middle of the latest fighting can do little more than observe, and keep count of the shells raining down on this strategic area.
