People in Bosnia and Herzegovina are gathering to honour the memory of thousands of victims of the 1995 Srebrenica genocide. Bosnian Serb forces attacked a UN-protected enclave, killing more than 8,300 mostly Muslim men and boys in a few days.

Srebrenica

Families and survivors are gathering in Srebrenica to honor the memory of those killed in the 1995 genocide, where Bosnian Serb forces executed more than 8,300 mostly Muslim men and boys. The victims had sought refuge in a United Nations-protected enclave, but were ultimately killed and buried in mass graves, many of which have only been partially uncovered.

Despite ongoing efforts, around a thousand people remain missing, and this year only seven victims are being buried, the lowest number so far. The Srebrenica massacre is officially recognized as genocide by two international courts and the United Nations, serving as a stark reminder of the need for vigilance against such atrocities.

Families gather in Bosnia to remember Srebrenica genocide victims

All this behind me, every white headstone is a life lost in Europe's worst massacres since the Holocaust. I'm in Srebrenica, where 8,372 people, mostly men and boys, were killed in just seven days. They were Muslim civilians. They had sought refuge in what's supposed to be a UN protected zone, but protection never came. Instead, they were executed, their bodies dumped in mass graves. To hide the scale of the crime, bodies were dismembered and moved to secondary and even tertiary graves. Investigators found many true aerial images shared by US officials that revealed the first mass grave sites. So far, more than 80 mass graves have been uncovered, but a thousand people are still missing and most who are found are laid to rest with only fragments, a single bone sometimes, all that's left of a life. This year, just seven victims are being buried, the lowest number so far. As time passes, finding new remains becomes harder as silence still protects the perpetrators. Families spend one final moment beside these green coffins. They waited decades for this goodbye. It feels like it just happened. I lost my whole family, my husband, my father, my cousins, and I still haven't found my brother. This is a burial of Mavlida's husband 30 years later with a grave that's still incomplete. The oldest victim to be buried this year was 67-year-old Fata Bektic, all that was recovered of her a single bone. Srebrenica is officially recognized as a genocide by two international courts and the United Nations. Crime on European soil, decades after world promised never again. 30 years on, the world returns to remember. But some here say the same failures are repeating, pointing to Gaza and the silence around it. From the graves still being filled to those marred with a white stone, this is not just a memorial, it's a warning that memory alone is not enough to stop history from repeating.
