In this gripping episode, we explore two dark chapters in history - the Nazi looting of priceless art during World War II and the brutal actions of Arkan’s Tigers during the Balkan Wars.

Next, we unravel the story of Arkan’s Tigers, a notorious paramilitary group during the Yugoslav Wars, and their leader, Željko Ražnatović, better known as Arkan. Known for war crimes and ruthless operations, Arkan’s Tigers left a bloody legacy in the Balkans.
