Srebrenica Genocide Commemorated Amid Denials

Thousands gathered in Srebrenica to commemorate the 1995 genocide, with 13 men and one teenage boy laid to rest. Over 8,000 Bosniak Muslims were killed by the Bosnian Serb army and police during the massacre. Despite international recognition, Serb officials like President Dodik deny the genocide, causing ethnic tensions. The UN designated July 11 as a day of reflection for the Srebrenica genocide, opposed by Serbia and Bosnian Serbs. The commemoration emphasizes the need to prevent future atrocities and work towards peace and reconciliation. Tragically, one participant from Sarajevo passed away during the recent 'March of Peace' towards Srebrenica.
