Independent Serbian journalists covered the fall of Srebrenica in 1995 by gathering information in real-time despite the Serbian regime’s disinformation and the journalists’ inability to reach the site. They relied on a network of sources across Bosnia and Herzegovina. While many initial reports could not be published due to lack of verification, most proved accurate, revealing the scale of the crime. The journalists learned that thousands of men were killed, and later, the Hague Tribunal established that over 8,000 men were massacred, constituting a genocide aimed at eliminating the Muslim population. Today, while denying the massacre is rare, historical revisionism persists, with efforts to minimize casualties or shift blame. A particularly dangerous trend involves the current Serbian leadership attempting to equate the entire Serbian people with those convicted of the Srebrenica genocide, which the text argues is rooted in chauvinism and hatred, echoing the conditions that led to the tragedy.
