Thousands of Bosnian Muslims mark 23rd anniversary of Srebrenica massacre

(11 Jul 2018) Thousands of Bosnian Muslims have gathered in Srebrenica on the 23rd anniversary of Europe's worst massacre since World War II to say prayers and attend the funeral for 35 recently identified victims. The remains of men and boys slaughtered at the enclave in July 1995 are being laid to rest on Wednesday in the town whose name has become synonymous with the brutality of the 1992-95 Bosnian war. The coffins have been lined up at a memorial centre and the burial pits have been dug. Srebrenica was a UN-protected, Muslim-populated town in eastern Bosnia besieged by Serb forces throughout the war. Serb troops overran the enclave and executed 8,000 men and boys within a few days. Dutch UN peacekeepers were undermanned and outgunned and failed to intervene.
