Formerly a popular meeting point,
this cafe in the main square in Gjakova
offers a bizarre sight.

This man in Prizren is listening to accounts of
atrocities that his neighbors had to undergo.

Two widows standing on the site
where their husbands were killed.
Blood stains still marks the spot.

This almost surrealistic picture shows the ghost
town of Celine where all buildings including
the school-building have been devastated.

Girls sitting down for a chat under a
carbonized transformer. No need to be afraid of
the cables. the electric system doesn't function.

Large part of the town center of Peja (Pec) were
burnt to the ground. The Bazaar street literally
disappeared. The mosque suffered severe damages.

UNESCO has declared this main area of Gjakova an
important historical site. It is hoped that the
original architectural beauty can be restored.

Newcomers freshly arriving in town.
Happy,
tired, shocked. Will their house still be standing?

In Xerxe a mass grave with 15 bodies is being
unearthed. The old man comments on the
excavations going on in the background.

Children having fun amidst the rubble.
