Ratko Mladić, Bosnian War Criminal
The Bosnian Serb general Ratko Mladić, the main responsible for the genocidal massacres during the Bosnian War, died in his prison in The Hague at the age of 84, after spending more than 15 years incarcerated. Mladić was convicted in 2017 on charges including genocide and crimes against humanity. Under his leadership, the Srebrenica massacre was carried out, resulting in the death of over 7,000 Muslims, and the Sarajevo siege that lasted two years, which claimed the lives of more than 10,000 civilians. He faced a trial lasting over four years in The Hague, with the court rejecting his release on humanitarian grounds due to his deteriorating health. His death marks the end of a bloody chapter characterized by the destruction of communities and the commission of horrific war crimes in the Balkans.
