Kamenica Primary School, Drvar

During the war from 1992 to 1995, the Primary School in Kamenica near Drvar was used as a detention site for Croat and Bosniak civilians and soldiers of HVO and ARBiH. Conditions were harsh and inhumane, the prisoners were held in overcrowded rooms without glass panes on the windows and were forced to sleep on stone and concrete floors. Access to food and running water was very limited and the prisoners were subjected to starvation. Beatings and abuse were a daily occurrence. More than 70 prisoners were killed or died from injuries caused by the beatings.
