in january 1993, arbih soldiers machine-gunned dozens of serb civilians fleeing the village of skelani. in february 1993, a srebrenica delegation visiting sarajevo proposed that one sarajevan serb be killed for every bosniak killed in srebrenica. at this time, the srebrenica enclave had reached its peak size of 900 square kilometers, although it was never linked to the main area of bosnian-held land in the west and remained "a vulnerable island amid serb-controlled territory." in response, the vrs launched numerous operations against the town. in march 1993, general ratko mladić of the vrs ordered the bosnian serb forces besieging the town to launch a large-scale counterattack. the attack resulted in the bosnian serbs capturing 80 percent of the territory of the srebrenica enclave once held by the 28th division of the army of the republic of bosnia and herzegovina (arbih). however, the vrs was forced to stop its offensive after the united nations security council passed resolution 819, which called for talks between the bosniak and bosnian serb military leadership and the de-militarization of srebrenica which was declared a "safe-area". however, because of differing interpretations of the resolution, srebrenica was never disarmed. instead, it was surrounded by a force of approximately 2,000 men from the vrs drina corps, which continued its stranglehold of the enclave.
