Detailed explanation-1: -The most widely professed religion in Bosnia and Herzegovina is Islam and nearly all the Muslims of Bosnia are followers of the Sunni denomination of Islam; the majority of Sunnis follow the Hanafi school of thought, also known as a madhab.
Detailed explanation-2: -Belgrade was bombed by the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) as a result of the Kosovo conflict of 1998–99. After Yugoslav and Serbian forces engaged in ethnic cleansing of Albanians, NATO began its bombing campaign on Yugoslavia. In Belgrade, multiple buildings were destroyed and civilians were killed.
Detailed explanation-3: -NATO involvement in the Bosnian War and the Yugoslav Wars in general began in February 1992, when the alliance issued a statement urging all the belligerents in the conflict to allow the deployment of United Nations peacekeepers. While primarily symbolic, this statement paved the way for later NATO actions.
Detailed explanation-4: -Minimizing harm to civilians was central to governmental and public consent for NATO’s bombing campaign in the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia-an air war officially justified as humanitarian intervention.
