Paramilitary Groups: General Framework Agreement for Peace in Bosnia and Herzegovina

Implementations

Paramilitary Groups – 1995

Armed civilian groups or militias were a characteristic feature of the civil war; these groups generally disbanded after the ceasefire. According to a UN Secretary General’s report,1 as soon as the cease fire agreement entered into force, the security situation in Bosnia and Herzegovina improved significantly. Compliance with provisions under the cease-fire agreement was much better and neither side was found engaging in offensive activities. The report further suggested that all parties were participating in joint military commissions. The cessation of organized violence was not observed after October 1995, although sporadic communal violence did continue.
