Three decades since Srebrenica genocide

The World

This week marks three decades since the massacre in the Bosnian town of Srebrenica where more than 8,000 Bosniak men and boys were systematically killed by Serb forces. It was the worst atrocity on European soil since World War II. Although two UN courts later ruled it a genocide, some survivors and victims’ families say they are still looking for justice, while peace in Bosnia and Herzegovina remains fragile. The World’s Europe Correspondent Orla Barry reports.
