ClimateHome: Failings on the part of the bank contributed to 'real and often severe harm' to villagers around the Sibovc mine, says leaked report

The World Bank broke its own rules and contributed to the suffering of hundreds of Kosovans who were forced from their homes to make way for a coalmine, a leaked report reveals.
