Thirty years after the Ottoman-era Old Bridge in the Bosnian city of Mostar was brought down by artillery fire, a soldier who captured its collapse on video looks back on the destruction and reconstruction of this symbol of a divided city.

Official policies on the memorialisation of the 1990s wars downplay or deny crimes committed by Serbian forces and glorify war criminals, says a new report by the Belgrade-based Humanitarian Law Centre.

Ahead of the anniversary of the 1992 killings of around 200 Bosniaks and Croats at the Koricani Cliffs on Bosnia’s Mount Vlasic, relatives said they hope the bodies of the remaining victims will eventually be found.

This month we will be talking about Chetnik movements and how they hold gatherings at places where crimes were committed during the Bosnian war. You’ll get to know the names of the Chetnik ‘dukes’ who have been accused and convicted of war crimes, and how Chetnik volunteers went to fight in Ukraine.

The absence of nationalist gestures at state commemorations of war anniversaries and the reconciliatory rhetoric used by some Croatian officials offered some hope in 2020, but little progress was made in prosecuting alleged war criminals.

Mourners threw roses into a ravine at the Koricani Cliffs on Mount Vlasic in Bosnia and Herzegovina, where at least 200 Bosniak and Croat men were shot dead on August 21, 1992.

A collective funeral for some of the many people who were killed at Koricanske Stijene near Prijedor during wartime and then buried in mass graves will be held on July 20 after the victims’ remains are identified.

The war crimes acquittal of the Bosnian Army’s former commander in Srebrenica, Naser Oric, has angered Serbs but delighted some Bosniaks.

The Bosnian Army’s former commander in Srebrenica, Naser Oric, was acquitted on appeal at his retrial of killing three Serb prisoners of war in 1992. The state court in Sarajevo on Friday acquitted Naser Oric of killing three Serb prisoners of war in the Bratunac and Srebrenica areas of Bosnia during the war in 1992.

In closing arguments at the retrial of the Bosnian Army’s former commander in Srebrenica, Naser Oric, the defence said that he should be acquitted of killing three Serb prisoners of war in 1992. Naser Oric’s defence asked the state court in Sarajevo on Friday to acquit the former Bosnian Army commander, saying that the prosecution had not proved his guilt at the retrial.
