THE EXPLOSION OF A MORTAR SHELL ON FEBRUARY 5, 1994, IN THE NORTHEAST CORNER OF SARAJEVO'S CROWDED MARKALE MARKETPLACE PRODUCED IMMEDIATE INTERNATIONAL ATTENTION AND ACTION. HOWEVER, DESPITE THE MAGNITUDE OF THE INCIDENT, REPORTERS ON THE SCENE EXPENDED LITTLE EFFORT IN INVESTIGATING OR TRYING TO RECONSTRUCT EVENTS SURROUNDING THE MASSACRE. NOR DID LOCAL OR INTERNATIONAL AUTHORITIES IN SARAJEVO PROVIDE MUCH IN THE WAY OF INSIGHTS. THIS ARTICLE REPORTS ON CONFLICTING INVESTIGATIONS AND CONCLUDES THAT UNQUESTIONABLY, THE MARKALE MASSACRE ALTERED THE FIELD ON WHICH THE BOSNIAN CONFLICT IS BEING PLAYED.
