Letter: The morality of military intervention in Bosnia
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Sir: In reply to the understandably heartfelt plea from Rebecca Tinsley (Letters, 3 August), I am glad to say that since the autumn of 1991 the British Southern Slav society has actively involved itself in the alleviation of individual human suffering through all the republics of the former Yugoslavia.
Senior officers of this society have driven lorries, full of medical equipment and drugs, to hospitals and medical centres, thus crucially ensuring that every lorry-load gets to its destination and none is lost in transit.
The Bosnia-Herzegovina Emergency Relief Appeal, run from this office, needs donations now to equip new lorry-loads of medical and humanitarian aid for the refugees, wounded and dispossessed from all parts of Bosnia and
Herzegovina.
Yours truly,
JOHN BURNS
Secretary
British Southern Slav Society
