Summary/Abstract: The author reviews events preceding the outbreak of war in 1992 in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The sequence of events is shown through the activities of the Croat, Muslim, and Serb side and of the army in the period from June 1991 to June 1992. The Croat side is shown definitely to have preceded the others in the military penetration of Bosnia and Herzegovina in 1991 and 1992. The formation of the Muslim armed movement in coordination with the authorities in Sarajevo is described the preparations of the Serb side through the activities of the Serb Democratic Party, and the ambiguous role of the Yugoslav People’s Army in the first phase of the conflict in 1992. The armed conflicts in April and May 1992 are treated in a separate chapter, as are the war crimes committed by the warring sides in the course of the conflict.
