When neighbours who have lived together peacefully turn against one another? When a city is under siege for four years? When over 8000 men are slaughtered in a genocide? Between 1992 and 1995, more than 100,000 thousand people were killed in the Bosnian War At least 70 percent of them were Bosniak Muslims. In July 1995 more than 8,000 Bosniak men and boys were killed by Bosnian Serb forces. The Srebrenica massacre is regarded as the only genocide in Europe since World War 2. To commemorate the 30th anniversary of the genocide, we'll hear from people who lived through the war, who survived the genocide, who brought aid from Scotland and from Scottish children who give a voice to children from Bosnia and all that they suffered.
