During the time of occupation of Sarajevo and it’s population of 340.000 people were constantly thrown on with artilery, hand bombs and heavy machine guns, in that way almost all culture and education buildings ot city Sarajevo were destroyed. The loss of rich library with unique and rare precious books in National library and Institude for oriental studies, whose buildings were burned, were not as well included in this study. In that way the count of this damage is impossible to say correctly, but damages on economy will be effective on further 30 to 50 years. Priceless treasure has burned. In cities Vijećnica fire has burned priceless and very rare book-which are just part of direct damage which Serbian soldiers had caused to the city.
