  • Story Text: Nato warplanes were again flying sorties over Bosnia and the former Yugoslavia on Tuesday (November 22), a day after the bombing of a Serb-controlled airfield inside the Krajina enclave in Croatia.

    About 50 of the alliance's jets took part in the largest ever NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organisation) air operation launched from Aviano airbase in Italy.

    F-16 and F-18 strike aircraft, along with AWAC (Airborne Warning and Control System) planes took off from the airbase again early on Tuesday in a show of force for the assembled media.
