92 or 93 James Mason

Kids' long-term care ward

Kosevo Hospital, Sarajevo

The two teenage girls had been shot by snipers. Since the snipers were certainly aware of the age and sex of their target, it would be interesting to hear the Serbian explanation for target selection.

Leica M6 ,35mm Summicron,Kodak Tri-X 400

other sizes: small medium original auto

Wow I can't believe I have never seen this photograph before! The young boy siting on the bed is my brother and he was about 7years old in this photo. He was injured while playing basketball in our garden. Would it be possible for you to email me this photo or any others you may have?

James, you are the one of the rare foreign journalist who is actually, indirectly saying that Serbs did what they have done, basically pointing a finger at them. I wish there were more foreign journalists like you at the time. Why all those courts of law for war crimes in ex-Yugoslavia does not call you and others to witness? So those sick perverted, twisted minds go where they belong - in prison for life at least....

why would anybody want to stay impartial?!

With all due respect these are children and their sex should not matter. If a sniper was aiming for them they would be dead

Way to stay impartial

Subhumans do not have explanations - just dark and sick motives in their dark and sick minds ....
