History


During the Bosnian War of the 1990s, Svilile, along with all of the Drina Valley, was ethnically cleansed of its Bosnian Muslim population by the Serb-controlled Army of Republika Srpska.[1] The methods of ethnic cleansing included rape, torture, mass murder and forced evacuations.[2] Between 30 June and 2 July 1998, the State Commission on Missing Persons exhumed the remains of 26 Bosnian Muslims in Svilile.[3]
