20,000 commemorate Bosnian massacre

Commemorating Europe’s worst massacre since World War II, more than 20,000 people gathered in Srebrenica, Bosnia-Herzegovina, today to rebury the remains of some of the more than 7,000 Muslim men and boys killed by Bosnian Serbs nine years ago.

In an emotional ceremony at the site of the slaughter, the crowd, including relatives of the 338 victims being reburied, fell on its knees in front of the caskets containing remains exhumed from mass graves dug by the Serbs to cover up the killings.
