UK / USA
over a number of days in July 1995,
Bosnian Serb forces systematically murdered
around 8,000 Bosniak (Bosnian Muslim)
men and boys.
It was the worst crime of the Bosnian war,
and remains the only massacre on European soil
since the second world war to be ruled a genocide.

If It Were My Home
The headlines tell a lot
about the crisis in Yemen:
internal strife,
evacuations
of international aid workers,
Saudi Arabian airstrikes.
But you may have
one very basic question
that you can't easily find
an answer for:
How big is Yemen,
anyway?
You can look at maps
and check out Wikipedia
but wouldn't it be great
to just to slap an outline of Yemen
on top of a map of the United States
to get a sense of its size?
IfItWereMyHome.com
lets you do just that.
