"Until today, no one has been held accountable for the deliberate execution of crimes against several tens of thousands of civilians who, during the aggression, practically survived in a kind of "concentration camp" due to the imposed conditions of the siege. The civilian population lived in a complete environment in a constant struggle for biological survival. The aggressor deliberately exhausted the population by leaving it without electricity, water, food, basic medicines, adequate treatment, which was supposed to accelerate the biological extermination of the most numerous ethnic group in this area. Continuously in the period 1992-1995. all civilian facilities, including the military hospital, were shelled, and civilians were targeted and wounded every day. Even the status of the UN safe zone did not help the civilians," pointed out Dr. Džananović.
