World must avoid repeat of Srebrenica Massacre, says Pakistan
In 1995, Bosnian Serb forces killed more than 8,000 Muslim men and boys in Srebrenica. Men who were directly or indirectly involved in the massacre hold key positions in Serbia's political and economic spheres.
It is pertinent to mention here that international tribunals later classified the killings as genocide."You must never forget what happened," the journalist Lamia Bravo told DW."If you do, they can happen again: There must never be a second Srebrenica." The International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia spent years investigating the massacre.
The genocide occurred in the area which had been declared part of a UN safe zone in 1993 and the Serbian forces overrun about 400 poorly armed Dutch UN peacekeepers stationed and execute Muslims.
