BBC NEWS | World | Europe: "Tensions resurfaced in the flashpoint town of Mitrovica on Tuesday when three Albanian children drowned, allegedly as they were trying to escape from Serbs who chased them with a dog.
The boys' deaths came a day after an 18-year-old Serb was wounded in a drive-by shooting in the village of Caglavica in central Kosovo, prompting clashes between Serbs and Nato peacekeepers.
Other incidents include:
* clashes in Caglavica where several Serbs' houses were burned
* in Kosovo Polje, on the outskirts of Pristina, a local hospital was burned alongside Serbian houses
* attacks against Serb returnees in Belo Polje in western Kosovo
* rioting in the western city of Pec, where UN offices came under attack and an Albanian was killed by a UN policewoman
* in Lipljan, eastern Kosovo, four Serbs were reportedly killed, the Serbian news agency Beta said. There has been no independent confirmation of the report. "
