Serbia Files Genocide Lawsuit in International Court of Justice Against Croatia

Serbia has filed a genocide lawsuit in the International Court of Justice in the Hague against Croatia, the Serbianna website reports today.

The lawsuit does not charge Croatia for the genocide of the Serbs during World War II when Croatia was an independent state and ally of Adolph Hitler.

The evidence details genocide during the Croatian attack on ethnic Serbs in 1995 and Croatian atrocities against the ethnic Serbs who attempted to return to their property after being forcefully expelled by Croatians in 1995.

Serbia, a nation which is primarily of the Orthodox faith, and Croatia, a nation which is mostly Catholic, were part of the former Yugoslavia until 1991, when Yugoslavia was dissolved into several independent nations.
