SARAJEVO, May 2 (FENA) - Cantonal and municipal delegations laid flowers at several memorials and cemeteries today and honored soldiers who were killed in Sarajevo 27 years ago defending the state of BiH.

They emphasized today that they managed to stop the slaughter on 2nd May 1992 without any organized defense and defend the capital city of BiH.

However, the longest siege of a city in history of modern warfare started on this day, which lasted for 1.425 days when more than 11.500 people lost their lives, including civilians who waited in lines for food and water, but also 1.601 children who were killed mostly while playing in front of their shelters.

This date will also be remembered by imprisonment of president of the BiH Presidency Alija Izetbegović at the Sarajevo Airport who was returning from peace negotiations.

Delegations laid flowers, said Al-Fatiha prayer and honored the victims with a minute of silence at Kovači cemetery, Lav cemetery and Stadium cemetery and at the Memorial for murdered children of besieged Sarajevo.
