UN Marks 30th Anniversary of Srebrenica Genocide with Global Commemorations

News summary

The 30th anniversary of the Srebrenica genocide, where over 8,000 Bosnian men and boys were systematically murdered, has reignited global reflection and calls for vigilance against hatred and denial. Survivors and communities in affected areas, like Srebrenica, continue to face deep scars and demographic decline, with many returning despite trauma and ongoing social challenges. At the United Nations, Secretary-General António Guterres emphasized the rise in hate speech and the glorification of war criminals, urging member states to uphold the lessons of Srebrenica and protect human dignity. International commemorations, including in countries such as the UK, Denmark, France, and the Netherlands, focus on remembrance, education, and combating genocide denial, featuring events like memorial displays, marches, and speeches by survivors. The UN and international courts have reaffirmed the classification of the Srebrenica massacre as genocide, stressing that responsibility is individual and that states must prevent such crimes. These efforts aim to honor victims, support survivors, and promote a collective commitment to “never again” through remembrance, justice, and education.
