SERBIAN YOUTHS CONTINUE PROTESTS IN BOSNIAN TOWN. Up to 2,000 ethnic Serbian teenagers threw eggs at NATO troops and damaged Muslim property in Brcko on 18 October for the second day in a row. The young people chanted nationalist slogans and carried nationalist flags. The youths demanded that Muslims leave the strategic town, which is under joint administration of all three major ethnic groups. Representatives of the international community dismissed the protests as a propaganda ploy in the run-up to the 11 November parliamentary elections, RFE/RL's South Slavic Service reported. PM
