The Mediterranean Connection: Israel and the War in Bosnia (Daniel Kofman Journal of Mediterranean Studies Mediterranean Institute, University of Malta Volume 6, Number 2, 1996)

Israel's Foreign Ministry did offer Bosnia mutual recognition from 1993, while the Bosnian government—dependent on aid from Muslim countries, including Iran—reluctantly delayed acceptance of the Israeli offer. (...) the same Iran has been a spiritual and material supporter of the Palestinian groups claiming responsibility for terrorist attacks on Israeli civilians. (During the first three years of the war) it was the express policy of the government not to take sides in any of the conflicts in the former Yugoslavia. The first explicit condemnation of Serbian atrocities in the name of the government came only after the fall of Srebrenica (...) Until that moment, that is, throughout the first three years of war, Israeli officials had insisted on maintaining official neutrality at best, and sometimes overt pro-Serbian sympathy. (...) There is now no doubt that Israeli arms—and arms, not necessarily Israeli, but supplied by Israeli dealers— are being sold to Serbia; the only question is the extent, if any, of Israeli government involvement.
