Tens of thousands people gathered for Srebrenica commemoration

Tens of thousands people gathered for a commemoration on Monday in Potočari to mark 16 years since the Srebrenica genocide.

The commemoration was attended by Bosniak and Croat members of the Bosnia-Herzegovina Presidency Bakir Izetbegović and Željko Komšić, as well as High Representative Valentin Inzko.

The remains of 613 identified Bosniaks will also be buried at the memorial center today.

They were killed by RS forces in July 1995, the youngest among them 11 years old.

Officials from Serbia will not be in Potočari today.
