Bosnia's muslims remember the victims of the srebrenica massacre 14 years ago

Janine RabeJuly 11, 2009

That was peter schreiber in Accra Ghana. Tens of thousands of Muslims have gathered in Srebrenica on the 14th anniversary of the wartime massacre in the Bosnian town. In July 1995, Bosnian-Serb forces massacred an estimated 8,000 Muslim civilians, who were supposed to be under the protection of United Nations forces. So far, only four thousand bodies have been identified. But the search goes on - and every year, on the anniversary of the killings, a burial ceremony is held for the latest victims to be identified.
