Football is the last shield of normalization for Israel: Ashish Prashar

Sarajevo Safari — A Hidden Crime of the Bosnian War

Among the darkest chapters of the 1992–1996 Siege of Sarajevo lies a story long concealed from public view: a human safari.

Directed by Miran Zupanič, a Slovenian filmmaker known for confronting untold histories, and produced by Arsmedia in co-production with Al Jazeera Balkans, Sarajevo Safari pieces together testimonies, archival footage, and newly uncovered evidence to reveal a crime once dismissed as rumor.
