Clinton had last week told of coming under sniper fire when she arrived at Bosnia's Tuzla airbase in March 1996.
"I remember landing under sniper fire. There was supposed to be some kind of a greeting ceremony at the airport, but instead we just ran with our heads down to get into the vehicles to get to our base," Clinton had recounted.
But reporters who accompanied her on the 1996 trip have since produced TV footage that shows nothing of the sort, as Clinton, accompanied by her daughter Chelsea, greeted wellwishers on their arrival and paused to chat.
Reruns of TV reports from the time showed Clinton being welcomed by smiling officials on the tarmac at Tuzla, and listening as an eight-year-old Bosnian girl read out a poem.
