IN PICTURES: Thousands Gather to Mark 31st Anniversary of Srebrenica Massacre as 10 More Victims Buried
The burials come as families await fuller identifications, with 900 victims still missing, the Institute for Missing Persons said.
- Bosnia marks the 31st anniversary of the genocide by Bosnian Serb forces on Saturday, when ten newly identified victims will be laid to rest at the Srebrenica Memorial Centre as tens of thousands attend.
- In the days following July 11, 1995, more than 8,000 Bosniaks were killed by Bosnian Serb forces in systematic killings classified as genocide by international and local courts.
- The victims buried this year ranged in age from 20 to 56, including oldest victim Ramo Dautovic and youngest Senad Jusic, though families often postpone burial due to incomplete skeletal remains.
- Over the past 12 months, the Prosecutor of Bosnia and Herzegovina issued two indictments for genocide, while Serbia's judiciary delivered one verdict for Srebrenica crimes as the Institute for Missing Persons continues searching for around 900 victims.
- The Podrinje Identification Project holds remains of 36 victims identified through DNA analysis whose families have not yet completed formal identification, as many wait in painful hope that more bones will be uncovered to bury complete remains of loved ones.
