Bosnian Serbs confess to massacres

Bosnian Serb officials have acknowledged for the first time that their security forces carried out the massacre of thousands of Muslims at Srebrenica during the Bosnian war, according to an investigative report.

An official commission looking into Europe’s worst massacre since World War II “established participation of (Bosnian Serb) military and police units, including special (police) units” in the deaths, international administration spokesman Vedran Persic told The Associated Press on Friday, quoting from the commission’s report.
