More Than A Magazine, A Movement
As I reflect on the parallels between Bosnia and Gaza, I am reminded that standing idly by is tantamount to complicity. We cannot ignore the cries of innocent lives, including all the hostages caught in the crossfire of this conflict.
As someone who lived in a war zone for over five years, north of Bosnia and Herzegovina’s capital, Sarajevo, I have borne witness to the horrors inflicted upon innocent souls women and children, my own community torn apart by violence and despair. Yet, in the face of such darkness, I have also seen the flicker of resilience, the unwavering spirit that refuses to be extinguished.
Unprecedented, forced displacement and loss of life that unfolded in places like Bosnia and Rwanda almost three decades ago are unfolding in other places, most recently in Gaza. Since the U.N. report, the grim reality persists as each subsequent report outpaces the last, now tallying over 30,000 lives lost. To be sure, in early 2024, the United Nations found itself under scrutiny, with the allegations of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East involvement in Oct. 7, which has led to drastic withholding of crucial financial resources, which has already shown devastating effects.
