Sarajevo, 1993. In the frontline district of Dobrinja, garbage containers and sandbags protect passers-by from Serbian sniper fire. A young boy runs along, his small height making it unnecessary for him to duck down like adults when they cross the Bridge of Death.

The remains of the Warsaw Ghetto in flames

The Warsaw Ghetto Uprising was the first instance in occupied Europe of an uprising by an urban population. On April 19, 1943, German troops and police entered the ghetto to deport its surviving inhabitants. The ghetto fighters were able to hold out for nearly a month, but on May 16, 1943, the revolt ended. The starved and humiliated Jews stood up against the Germans for a longer period than some independent countries in Europe.
