Bosnia 1992-1995 During the 1990s a number of ethnic conflicts took place in Yugoslavia among the six nations that lived there, which led to the dismantling of Yugoslavia. In the course of the Bosnian War from 1992 to 1995 approximately 100,000 people were murdered as part of an attempt by Serbia to preserve its rule over Bosnia through ethnic cleansing. In 1999 the Kosovo War broke out.

Once again the Serbians attempted to carry out an ethnic cleansing, but this time an international force confronted them and prevented this potential genocide. Background: Yugoslavia had a long history of political, economic, and cultural conflict, as well as ethnic tension. From the end of World War II, the country was ruled by Tito, a communist dictator who ran the country until his death in 1980.

The government was de-centralized, and each national group had its autonomy as part of the larger republic. Tito managed to maintain this situation for a long period of time and to keep the ethnic friction at a minimum during his regime. However, near the end of his life, the ethnic tensions were revived. As time passed and the Cold War ended, it became more and more clear that Tito’s communism was coming to an end and that nationalism would take its place. In 1991, Slovenia, one of the Yugoslav republics, declared independence. The Serbs, led by Slobodan Milosevic, who opposed the breakup of Yugoslavia, started a war against the Slovenians.

The war lasted 10 days, at the end of which Slovenia had achieved independence. This was the official beginning of the breakup of Yugoslavia, which lasted until 2001 and was characterized by a series of violent ethnic and national confrontations.

The Bosnian Genocide: In April 1992, Bosnia was recognized as an independent country by the European community and the United States, but the struggle for Bosnian territorial sovereignty had not ended. Three main groups fought each other within the country: Bosnian Muslims, Serbs, and Croats. The international community tried to broker peace in the region, but did not succeed. The conflict was especially violent in the eastern part of Bosnia, near Serbia, between the Serbs and Bosnians. The Serbs, who opposed the creation of a Bosnian state within their territory, began to bomb major cities in Bosnia, including Sarajevo and Mostar, and also took hold of large areas of Bosnia in order to form a contiguous Serbian territory. The Serbian soldiers were urged on by a televised publicity campaign from the Serbian capital city of Belgrade; the campaign incited against the Muslims, who were described as fundamentalists who aimed to slaughter the Serbian nation. From that point on, the Serbians conducted a genocide against Bosnians living in the areas under their control.

As early as May 1992, they had begun to segregate between Muslims and Croats in northwest Bosnia and to send Muslims to concentration camps. The most famous camp was called Omarska, near the town of Prijedor in Northeast Bosnia. The prisoners in the camp were beaten, denied food and water, housed in horrific conditions, sexually assaulted, tortured, and finally killed. In Trnopolje, a women-only camp, the women were regularly raped by police and army personnel. The first goal of the Serbs was to wipe out the educated, the intellectuals, the wealthy, and any other non-Serbs who actively opposed their rule.

Other civilians were forced into closed train cars and sent to areas ruled by Bosnia. These actions caused a mass exodus of Muslims out of Northwest Bosnia.

Out of an initial population of 550,000 Muslims and Croats, by June 1994 fewer than 50,000 remained in their homes. The area had been “purified.” The fate of Eastern Bosnia was no better. Thousands of Muslims from Sarajevo and its surrounding towns were arrested and sent to Foca prison, one of the largest in Yugoslavia. Women were separated from men and taken to public buildings or hotels, where they were beaten, tortured, and raped cruelly at the hands of hundreds of Serbian soldiers over the course of many months. Due to these incidents, many of the female captives lost all of their strength and suffered from a number of sexually transmitted infections. The Serbian soldiers would declare after rape that the women had given birth to “Serbian babies.” In the wake of these events, the number of Bosnian refugees in Yugoslavia reached 1.4 million by November 1992, and this number grew as the war went on. This was the worst refugee crisis in Europe since World War II.
