Ten Wounded in Bomb Attack on Kosovo Serb Cafe

                PRISTINA (Reuters) - Ten people were
                wounded, two of them seriously, in a bomb
                attack on a Serb-run cafe in Kosovo on
                Monday, the NATO-led KFOR peacekeeping
                force said.

                A KFOR spokesman said a home-made bomb
                had been thrown at the cafe in the eastern
                town of Vitina. International police had
                arrested four people, he said.

 The two seriously injured were rushed to a military hospital at
 Camp Bondsteel, the main base for U.S. troops in Kosovo. Their
 condition was stable, the spokesman said.

 Since NATO bombing drove out Serb forces in June, Kosovo has
 seen a wave of revenge attacks by members of the ethnic
 Albanian majority angry at years of Serb repression.

 The U.S.-led military sector, which includes Vitina, has been a
 particular flashpoint as a sizable Serb population remains in the
 area, unlike many other parts of the territory which are inhabited
 only by Albanians.

 The KFOR spokesman said the identities of the victims of the
 attack, and of those arrested, had not been released so far.
