38. Russians, Italians, and Americans?
Wed Nov 12, 2025, 01:15 PM
Nov 12
The foreigners, from Italy, the US, Russia and elsewhere, are accused of paying Serbian forces to take part in the shooting spree during the Bosnian War.


A lot of this sounds speculative, so don't expect names anytime soon. Other than:

There is one well-known, documented case of a foreigner shooting at civilians from the hills surrounding Sarajevo. Eduard Limonov, a Russian nationalist, was filmed in 1992 firing a machine gun down on the besieged city. He was accompanied by Karadzic, who was later found guilty of genocide and crimes against humanity during the Bosnian war. Limonov died in Moscow in 2020 at the age of 77.
