Days after the European Union urged Serbia to increase its efforts to capture Ratko Mladic, left, the fugitive accused of masterminding the massacre at Srebrenica in 1995, officials there increased the reward for information leading to his capture. The government said in a statement on Thursday that it had raised the reward to $14 million from $1.4 million. “Serbia is determined to get rid of that burden,” Verica Kalanovic, the nation’s infrastructure minister, said, according to Reuters.
