The remains of 14 victims of the 1995 Srebrenica genocide in Bosnia and Herzegovina have finally been laid to rest, nearly three decades after the horrific event took place. Thousands of people gathered to commemorate the anniversary of the genocide, which saw the massacre of thousands of Bosnian Muslim men and boys.
The United Nations recently established an annual day of remembrance for the victims of the Srebrenica genocide, ensuring that the tragic events that took place in July 1995 are never forgotten. The burial of these 14 victims serves as a somber reminder of the atrocities that occurred during the conflict in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Al Jazeera’s Jonah Hull reports on the emotional ceremony, as families and loved ones pay their respects to those who lost their lives in the Srebrenica genocide. As the remains of these victims are finally put to rest, we honor their memory and vow to never forget the tragic events that unfolded in Srebrenica 29 years ago. May they rest in peace. #SrebrenicaGenocide #BosniaAndHerzegovina #UNRemembranceDay #GenocideRemembrance #VictimsHonored #AnniversaryCommemoration #RestInPeace #NeverForget.
