Morning in a Basement in Zvornik: The Testimony of One Family, 9 April 1992
On the morning of 9 April 1992, the day after Serb forces entered Zvornik, armed men burst into the basement of a residential building where some thirty civilians were hiding and led out the men. One family's story is known from the testimony of a woman in a documentary film, while the broader framework of events is described by witnesses before the ICTY. In 2023, the IRMCT issued a final conviction of Jovica Stanišić and Franko Simatović for crimes committed during the takeover of Zvornik.
