Bosnian Genocide could be a definition of a campaign of Republika Srpska and its Army to target for extinction a wide group of Bosnian Muslims (Bosniaks) during the war in Bosnia and Herzegovina in 1992-1995. Such encompassing conculsion can be made by gathering of common motifs and actions defined in several massacres and genocides that took place in Bosnia and Herzegovina in most recent war. So far the Bosnian Genocide included killing of some 10000 predominantly Bosniaks while exact numbers are still being investigated and they are widely disputed.

Quote by Radovan Karadzic, a co-founder of Republika Srpska and its first president alluded to the origins of this ideology: ...the road to which you want to take Bosnia and Herzegovina is the same highway of hell which Slovenia and Croatia took. Don't think you won't take Bosnia and Herzegovina to hell and the Muslims into annihilation... Muslims can't defend themselves if there is war here (Karadžić speaking at the Bosnian parliament, March 4, 1992)

Srebrenica

First massacre to be proven by ICTY and recognized as a genocide in Bosnia and Herzegovina was a Srebrenica Massacre. In Prosecutor v. Krstic, a landmark ruling that put to rest any doubts about the legal character of the Srebrenica massacre, the Appeals Chamber of the International Criminal Tribunal for Former Yugoslavia unanimously ruled that it was an act of genocide. As the Chamber’s judgment states: By seeking to eliminate a part of the Bosnian Muslims, the Bosnian Serb forces committed genocide. They targeted for extinction the 40,000 Bosnian Muslims living in Srebrenica, a group which was emblematic of the Bosnian Muslims in general.…The Appeals Chamber states unequivocally that the law condemns, in appropriate terms, the deep and lasting injury inflicted, and calls the massacre at Srebrenica by its proper name: genocide. Those responsible will bear this stigma, and it will serve as a warning to those who may in future contemplate the commission of such a heinous act. In 2004 Republika Srpska authorities admitted to the charges of genocide and offered an official apology for events that took place.

Bosanska Krajina

There are other massacres currently being investigated at ICTY including so called Bosanska Krajina Genocide, the trial of Radoslav Brdjanin and Momir Talic, and Prijedor Genocide, the trial of Milomir Stakic, all located in Bosanska Krajina region of Bosnia and Herzegovina. These cases were based on most recent discoveries of mass graves in this region and testimonies from people who were held at the concentration camps Manjaca, Omarska, Trnopolje and Keraterm.
