Sarajevo remained largely peaceful during most of 1994. "Peaceful" is a relative term, as occasional sniper and infantry attacks continued to terrorize the civilian population. But the terrifying artillery and mortar fire, which caused most of the casualties and destroyed parts of the city, has essentially stopped. One significant break in the peace occurred in September, when the ARBiH launched a very small offensive to capture part of Sedrenik, in the northeastern part of the city north of Sarajevo's old town. [2] [3] ARBiH forces from the Muslim settlement of Grdonj launched a surprise attack on Serb-controlled Sedrenik on September 18. The ARBiH advanced on the first day and the fighting intensified as the Serbs counter-attacked the next day. The isolated two-day conflict ended with small gains for the ARBiH. But on September 20, UN observers reported that the VRS was regaining the positions lost from the previous days. [4]
