#WR: Horrible remembering! Do you remember the 1995 Srebrenica massacre of Bosniaks. @dwnews posted a terrible story. Bosnian Serb forces killed more than 8,000 mostly Muslim and boys 25 years ago. Some of the killers remain free till now in Serbia. #Srebrenica25 #BosnianGenocide
According to DW, "In July 1995, forces from Bosnia's breakaway Republika Srpska and paramilitary allies killed more than 8,000 mostly Muslim men and boys in the town of Srebrenica. International tribunals later classified the killings as a genocide. Young people in Bosnia and Herzegovina are working to keep the massacre in the global consciousness. 'You must never forget what happened," the journalist Lamia Bravo told DW. "If you do, they can happen again: There must never be a second Srebrenica.' "
It is sad to recognize that Srebrenica was not the last world massacre of the last few decades. Till now, we don't know when the Syrian civil war will end...
