	Bosnia: Bijeljina's Minorities Unable to Return Home (Human Rights Watch, 31-5-2000)
		Instead, the authorities in Bijeljina continue to obstruct the implementation of the Dayton agreement, providing neither protection nor equal rights to the Bosniak community of Bijeljina, while actively deterring the return of Bosniaks who were driven from the city during the war.
		Bijeljina is a strategic city in Republika Srpska (RS), in the divided Bosnia and Hercegovina.
		During the war, the Bosnian Serb authorities tried to force the non-Serb population to leave through a rigorous campaign of "ethnic cleansing." Many non-Serbs were fired from their jobs, forced to work at the frontline or held in the Batkovi detention camp.

	Bosnia And Hercegovina: Unfinished Business - The Take-Over Of Bijeljina And Janja

		The fact that Bijeljina was the first city to be captured by (Bosnian) Serb forces was not a coincidence.
		Bijeljina was of strategic importance for the Serb forces in Bosnia and Croatia, since it is located on the road connecting the predominantly Serb Posavina and Krajina areas to the "homeland" Serbia.
