BackgroundThe exodus of Sarajevo Serbs was one of many exoduses of Serbs during Bosnian War.[1] Right before this exodus there was another exodus of 17,000 Serbs from Odžak and Vukosavlje.[2] Both of them preceded by massive exodus of more than 250,000 Serbs from Croatia during Operation Storm which set precedents for the exodus of Sarajevo Serbs.[3] It was reported on 1 January 1996 that 'rumours and blind panic trigger mass flight from [the] city's contested suburbs'.{{sfn|Independent|1996}} ExodusThe Dayton Agreement finalized the demarcation between the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina (FBiH) and Republika Srpska (RS), the two post-war entities of the country. Ilijaš, Vogošća, Hadžići, Ilidža, Rajlovac and Grbavica were incorporated into FBiH, while other peripheral parts of the former Sarajevo municipality became part of RS (see Istočno Sarajevo). The Serb community massively left the FBiH part of Sarajevo for RS. Their number was first reported in 1996 as 62,000,[4] but it is estimated that the total number was 150,000.[3] Australian professor Dino Murtić emphasized that exodus of Sarajevo Serbs was massive and planned and that Bosnian president Izetbegović initially demonstrated indifference about it stating that the people of Sarajevo "finally deserved to be free of their murderers".[5] After some time, Izetbegović called Serbs to stay in Sarajevo.[6] Some Serbs exhumated the graves of their ancestors from Sarajevo graveyards to graveyards near their new accommodation.[7] ResponsibilitySome authors believed that all involved parties in Bosnia were responsible for the mass exodus of Sarajevo Serbs, including the officials of Republika Srpska.[8] For some authors it was difficult to determine if this exodus was voluntarily or forced.[9] Some authors explain that ethnic cleansing of Serbs from Croatia during Operation Storm (silently supported by major powers like United States and Germany) set precedent for the exodus of 150,000 terrified suburban Sarajevo Serbs who did not feel that a Muslim-led Bosnian government or the outside world will guarantee their safety.[3] Media coverageThe Western observers claimed that Serbs used mass exhumations during their exodus from Sarajevo to gain moral victory.[10] Historian Peter Brock explained that even after the 1996 exodus, the Western media still refused to acknowledge the flight of tens of thousands of Sarajevo Serbs that occurred at the beginning of the Bosnian War in early 1992.[11] Even before the exodus of Sarajevo Serbs began, another exodus of 17,000 Serbs from Odžak and Vukosavlje went unnoticed in the public.[2] Eventually, the exodus of Sarajevo Serbs forced foreign journalists including Tom Gjelten to reconsider their initial judgement about Sarajevo being harmonious.[12] References1. ^{{harvnb|FBIS|1996|p=27}}: "The exodus of Sarajevo's Serbs is just one of many Serb exoduses during this war, but it is fatal for them.

Neither the Muslim-led Bosnian Government nor the outside world, was able to offer the suburban Sarajevo Serbs — numbering approximately 150,000— convincing guarantees of safety." 4. ^{{harvnb|McEvoy|O'Leary|2013|p=345}}:"On the other hand, Dayton's ethnic circumscription of space after the war had detrimental effects on Sarajevo, catalyzing a mass exodus in early 1996 of some sixty-two thousand Sarajevo Serbs from inside what would be the Dayton borders of Sarajevo city and its suburbs and creating today's more monoethnic postwar city (Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre 1996)." 5. ^{{harvnb|Murtic|2015|p=164}}: "Some Serbian families even dug out and transported the remains of their ancestors from the graveyards. For them, life under the political domination of Bosniaks and/or Croats was out of question. The Izetbegovic government in Sarajevo showed indifference to this massive, planned exodus of Sarajevo's Serbs. Izetbegovic himself once said that the people of Sarajevo 'finally deserved to be free of their murderers' (Sell 1999, p. 183)." 6. ^{{harvnb|Murtic|2015|p=164}}: "Later, he called on all Serbs to stay." 7. ^{{harvnb|Murtic|2015|p=164}} 8. ^{{harvnb|IWPR|1996|p=}}: "All sides involved in Bosnia seem set to win from such a development. Bosnian Serb authorities, international mediators, and the Bosnian federal government have all cast their shadows over the transfer of control over the Sarajevo suburbs from Republika Srpska to the Bosnian federation. All, therefore, bear some responsibility for the resulting mass exodus of Sarajevo's Serb inhabitants" 9. ^{{harvnb|Burg|Shoup|2015|p=172}}: "The departure of the Sarajevo Serbs after Dayton and the exodus of Serbs from Krajina further illustrate the difficulty of distinguishing between coercion and voluntarism." 10. ^{{harvnb|Turton|2003|p=1}} 11. ^{{harvnb|Brock|2005|p=286}}: "Years later, "enlightened Western" journalism still refused to acknowledge the flight of tens of thousands of Sarajevo's Serbs along with its entire Jewish community — both with palpable memories from World War II atrocities — on the eve of the recognition of Bosnian "independence" in early 1992. " 12. ^{{harvnb|Brock|2005|p=286}}: "Gjelten grudgingly conceded that "the Serb exodus" eventually forced foreign journalists "to reconsider their initial judgment" about Sarajevo's harmoniousness."
