🧵 I’ve just survived a crime against humanity in my hometown of Višegrad. The perpetrators are Milan Lukić and his White Eagles unit.

I was locked into a house on Pionirska Street. There were about 70 other Bosniaks. Mainly women, and children. It was set on fire. Only a handful of us have survived.

We were all locked into one room. The carpet was wet and the room smelled like glue. I think it had been prepped with something flammable beforehand. An incendiary device was put into the room and soon everything was on fire.

Milan Lukić and his troops stood outside the house, shooting at anyone who managed to escape through the window.

Some of us began trying to escape through the windows. Lukić and his troops were shining a flashlight through the thick smoke to see who was jumping out so they could shoot us.

I was among those who jumped out the window, along with @VG61’s father, @G18, @VG84 and @VG13.

I’m numb and don’t know what to say other than the world has to put a stop to this evil. Today dozens of Bosniaks, including children, were burned alive by Serb troops.
