After three decades, the voice of the Mothers of Srebrenica remains the strongest call against oblivion and injustice, said the President of Kosovo, Vjosa Osmani, on the 30th anniversary of the Srebrenica genocide.
Osmani commemorated the eight thousand Bosniak men and boys who were killed by the Milosevic regime.
“Kosovo stands with them because we know what pain and loss mean, but also what tireless commitment to justice means. Let us never forget, let us never be silent,” Osmani wrote on Facebook.
Bosnia and Herzegovina today marks the 30th anniversary of the Srebrenica massacre. This massacre is the worst atrocity in Europe since World War II.
In July 1995, Bosnian Serb forces killed more than 8,000 Muslim men and boys in the Srebrenica enclave, which had been designated a “safe area” by the United Nations.
Even 30 years after the killings, mass graves continue to be discovered. Identifying the victims is difficult, as the bodies were dismembered by excavators and dumped into graves.
Every year, on July 11, the remains of those identified during the previous year are buried at the Memorial Center in Potočari.
