Thousands march in Bosnia for the 30th anniversary of the Srebrenica massacre
Washington Post08-07-2025
NEZUK, Bosnia-Herzegovina — Nearly 7,000 people embarked on a three-day peace march Tuesday through the forests of eastern Bosnia in memory of the thousands of victims of the 1995 Srebrenica massacre, Europe's only acknowledged genocide since World War II.
The annual 100-kilometer (60-mile) march retraces in reverse a route taken by men and boys from the Bosniak ethnic group, made up primarily of Muslims, who were massacred as they tried to flee Srebrenica after Bosnian Serb forces captured it in the closing months of the country's 1992-95 interethnic war.
