BELGRADE, Serbia (AP) — Serbia’s war crimes court on Tuesday convicted nine former paramilitary members of the brutal killings of more than 100 ethnic Albanian civilians during the Kosovo war and sentenced them to between two and 20 years in prison.

The crime by the “Jackals” paramilitary group includes the massacre of 41 people in the Kosovo village of Cuska, where Serbs rounded up villagers, robbed them, separated women and children from men, locked the men in a house and set it on fire.
