- Contents Summary
- This broadcast features a short report by Tom Brokaw on a Bosnian Serb/Muslim mixed-marriage family's struggle to survive on a daily basis in Sarajevo. The family is followed as they search for food, water, and fuel for heating, among other things. The latter portion of the report focuses on how public utilities such as electricity, water, and gas are arbitrarily cut off as a means of warfare. The second part also features interviews with Radovan Karadzic, leader of the Bosnian Serbs, and Larry Hollingworth, UNHCR in Sarajevo, discussing the town of Vogosca, which had its energy supply cut off because of a Bosnian Serb arms factory located there.
