No expertise on the Balkans, but the internecine fighting in the region during WW2 was incredibly brutal, with atrocities the order of the day, Check out Chetniks or Ustashi for details.
The place is soaked in blood, has been since Byzantine days, when one of the more successful emperors got the honorific title of 'Bulgar Killer'..The Turks just added to the mayhem, centuries later.
