Peacekeeping continues to be challenging as more ethnic violence erupts between the Kosovar majority and the Serb minority of Kosovo.  Roma-Sinti (Gypsies) are also increasingly targeted as KFOR tries to "police" their sectors.  August, 1999 brings more challenges as the winter looms in the near future.
