Concentration camp
Batković village was the site of the Batković camp, believed to be the first concentration camp in operation during the Bosnian War. It was run by Serbs from 1 April 1992 until late January 1996. The prisoners were predominantly Bosnian Muslims, who were tortured, sexually assaulted, and killed by Serbs.
