true story: Ratko Mladić's own war time diary was used as evidence in his war crimes tribunal. In it, he wrote of the arms and training supplied by Israel to Serbia AFTER the international arms embargo, during the genocide, shortly before the Srebrenica massacre.
Journalists, international investigators, and human rights organizations documented extensive physical and circumstantial proof on the ground, which heavily corroborated the transactions hinted at in Ratko Mladić’s diary. They recovered spent artillery shells, mortar rounds, and specialized ammunition with distinct Hebrew inscriptions, found at Serb military positions surrounding besieged Bosnian cities, including Sarajevo.
When human rights lawyer Eitay Mack tried to petition to the court to declassify Israeli archives to ascertain the extent of the weapons transfers, Israel's High Court refused, claiming that the truth could damage Israel's reputation.
Ratko Mladic, the convicted Bosnian Serb war criminal known as the "Butcher of Bosnia", has died while serving a life sentence in The Hague.
The former Bosnian Serb military commander was convicted of genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes, including his role in the 1995 Srebrenica genocide, in which more than 8,000 Muslim Bosniak men and boys were killed.
Mladic evaded justice for nearly 16 years before his arrest in Serbia in 2011
