The horrors of the conflict between ethnic Albanians and Serbs are still emerging two decades after NATO’s intervention.
The 22-year-old pregnant Kosovo Albanian woman thought that wearing a cloth diaper as a scarf would mask her youth and keep her safe from Serb soldiers. Then one evening, she was taken to her father’s house in western Kosovo and – just like two of her sisters before her – she was raped.
It was April 1999, less than a month after NATO started a bombing campaign to drive Serb forces out of the former Yugoslav province. Two decades later, the repercussions are still playing out and her story is one of thousands that show why a political reconciliation remains elusive.
