April is a special month in recent Bosnian history. War against Bosnia began in April 1992. And, sometimes it seems like it never stopped 💔 but just continues through different means. Time to reflect again, respect written history based on facts and abide by the ICTY judgments. twitter.com/MTokaca/status…
Ovako je bilo 5. aprila 1992. godine na Vrbanja mostu. Čovjek kojeg spašavamo je Amir Grahić. Uspio sam mu kravatom povezati potkoljenicu da ne iskrvari. Fotografiju je napravio Danilo Krstanović, fotoreporter Oslobodjenja. pic.twitter.com/3urTTOQVkA
