What does war leave behind? For communities in Serbia and the Balkans, the answer lies in a toxic legacy: cancer clusters, unexplained illnesses, and families shattered by NATO's use of depleted uranium (DU) munitions in the 1999 bombing raids. 'The Legacies of War: Deadly Dust', a gripping new documentary, uncovers stories ignored for decades.
Over 26 years, DU shells—used for armor-piercing power—have contaminated soil and water, with studies linking exposure to leukemia, kidney damage, and birth defects. Similar patterns are emerging in Iraq, where DU weapons were also deployed. 'This isn't just history—it's a silent, ongoing emergency,' says one survivor interviewed in the film.
Activists and scientists are pushing for accountability, urging NATO to declassify data on DU use. 'We need transparency to heal,' says a Serbian epidemiologist. The documentary asks a haunting question: When war ends, who bears its invisible scars?
