Overview

• Thousands of participants gathered at the Potočari memorial on July 11 to honor the more than 8,000 Bosniak victims of the 1995 massacre.
• Seven newly identified sets of remains were interred at the site, while DNA teams estimate about 1,000 victims are still missing.
• Representatives from Serbia and the Republika Srpska again refused to attend or recognize the genocide during the ceremonies.
• Local Bosnian Serb authorities continue to deny the Srebrenica genocide and offer limited support to Bosniak survivors.
• The United Nations’ designation of July 11 as an international day of reflection underscored ongoing debates over accountability and the legacy of UN peacekeeping failures.
