BRUSSELS, Belgium (AP) -NATO ambassadors issued new threats to bomb Bosnian Serb positions, but ended their emergency meeting Thursday without specific plans to stop the Serb assault on the Bihac safe area. The lack of firm action during the daylong meeting was a setback for alliance efforts to bolster the credibility of its response to the 2V6-year-long war.

Britain, France and other allies have sent thousands of peacekeeping troops to the region. The United States has no ground forces In Bosnia.
